The WRC found Piotr Brzusek’s complaint against The Wild Atlantic Good Food Company Limited t/a The Lemon Leaf Cafe not well founded. He claimed unpaid wages while the café was closed for renovations after a flood, saying he had been assured pay would continue. The company denied agreeing to pay during the closure and relied on handbook terms allowing unpaid lay-off. The adjudicator found no automatic entitlement to wages during lay-off and no evidence that insurance would cover them.
