The Workplace Relations Commission rejected Daniel Holland’s complaint that Tipperary Sustainable Food Company T/A James Whelan Butchers dismissed him because of his trade union membership or activity. The decision, dated 16 April 2025, made no monetary award. The company said the dismissal followed the tone and content of Holland’s emails. The adjudication officer found on the balance of probabilities that the dismissal was for the emails, not union membership or activity.
