The Workplace Relations Commission directed Natus Manufacturing Limited to pay Niamh Callanan a €640 bonus after finding the company had made an unlawful deduction from her wages. The decision was dated 12 March 2024. Callanan said she was told she was due a bonus when she gave notice after working for the company from 2017 to 2022. She said she learned after leaving that she would not be paid, and that the company did not provide the bonus policy when she requested it. The employer did not attend the hearing. The adjudicator accepted her account and found she was owed €640. Under the Payment of Wages Act, bonuses count as wages, and the company was directed to pay the amount less any lawful deductions.
