The WRC recommended that a construction company pay an accounts assistant €2,500 after finding a serious breach of her rights in the way it handled her probation. The recommendation was dated 12 March 2024. The company cited performance concerns, including an approximately €30,000 subcontract tax imbalance. The officer accepted that informal discussions took place, but found that significant performance issues were identified only after the assistant’s employment ended and that the company had not assessed her before terminating her employment. The officer also recommended that the company take steps to comply with its policies.
