The Workplace Relations Commission declined to hear David Chalton’s claim for 16 days of unpaid annual leave because it was referred after the statutory deadline. The WRC decision was dated 22 April 2024. Chalton said the business’s previous owner repeatedly promised to pay him, which explained his delay. The adjudication officer found that this did not establish reasonable cause to extend the deadline: the claim was due by 10 July 2023 but was referred on 28 November 2023. The merits were not decided.
