The WRC found Oliver Ward was not entitled to a redundancy payment from Silverhill Civil Contracts Ltd. Its decision was dated 17 April 2024. Ward said he was made redundant after the company changed the terms for seasonal tree-trimming work, including reducing the rate from €2 to €1.8 per metre. The company said he resigned after objecting to the changes and requesting his P45. The adjudicator found Ward chose to leave because he was unhappy with the new terms. As there was no dismissal, the statutory criteria for redundancy were not met, and the complaint was found not well founded.
