Michael Daly wins redundancy entitlement after taxi business closes

Michael Daly was found entitled to a redundancy payment after the taxi business where he worked closed, though the decision gives no payment figure. The Workplace Relations Commission, in a decision dated 4 April 2024, upheld his complaint under the Redundancy Payments Act. His employer, Patrick Gilsenan, trading as Call - A- Car, accepted that Daly was made redundant but said he could not pay the entitlement. The adjudicator found Daly had worked continuously from 1 March 2005 until 4 August 2023 and was entitled to payment based on gross weekly pay of €600.
