The Workplace Relations Commission ordered Freshly Chopped Smithfield Ltd, trading as Neat Pizza, to pay Josemir Gomes Da Sila €950 compensation after finding it breached annual-leave rules. Adjudication Officer Kara Turner’s decision was dated 25 July 2025. The officer found the company used accrued leave to top up pay in weeks when Da Sila worked fewer than 39 hours, without meeting statutory requirements for granting leave. The company said public-holiday benefits were paid and argued that issues raised later were time-barred.
