Go Ahead Transport Services (Dublin) Limited must pay driver Noel Kelly €1,500 after the WRC found his annual leave pay was not paid in advance, as required by law. The decision, dated 28 June 2024, said Kelly took two weeks’ leave in June 2023 while the company used a back-week payroll practice. The company acknowledged that the practice breached the payment requirement and said it had since changed. It argued Kelly suffered no financial loss because he continued to receive weekly pay during his leave. The adjudication officer said proof of detriment was not required for compensation.
