WRC rejects five complaints after employer was wrongly named

By Donal Gilhooly

Historic decision · Decision date:

Place: no local area assigned from the source.

The Workplace Relations Commission found it had no jurisdiction to consider five employment complaints brought by Briona Brogan because she named Andrew Currie instead of her employer, ACH Capital Limited. The decision, dated 5 March 2025, declined to change the respondent’s name; no compensation was awarded. The complaints concerned wages and working time. Brogan said her solicitor had mistakenly named Currie and sought to substitute ACH Capital Limited. The officer found the naming was not a simple clerical error and that the time limit for complaints against ACH Capital Limited had expired. Brogan withdrew a separate minimum notice complaint at the hearing.
