The Workplace Relations Commission upheld Sean O'Mahoney’s complaints over wages, excessive working hours and missing written employment terms, ordering McGough Air Limited to pay compensation of €2,195.62, €4,391.24 and €4,391.24 respectively. The decision was dated 22 November 2024. The officer accepted that O'Mahoney worked 55 hours a week, above the 48-hour average limit. A redundancy complaint was withdrawn after he received statutory redundancy. One minimum-notice complaint was upheld without redress, while another was upheld over unpaid annual leave during the notice period. A separate minimum-notice complaint was not upheld.
