Historic decision · Decision date:

Place: no local area assigned from the source.

The Workplace Relations Commission rejected Thomas Freeman’s complaint against Kingspan Insulation Ltd over a disputed bonus and retrospective wage increase. The decision was dated 12 December 2024. Freeman argued that he qualified for the benefits because he worked during the agreement’s qualifying period and it did not exclude former employees. Kingspan said the agreement took effect after his employment ended and applied only to existing employees. The adjudication officer found the sum was not wages properly payable and dismissed the complaint.
