WRC rejects Kianda Technologies worker’s unfair dismissal complaint

The Workplace Relations Commission rejected Emmet Heeney’s unfair dismissal complaint against Kianda Technologies Limited. The decision was dated 17 February 2025; no compensation was awarded. Heeney alleged he was dismissed after emailing a senior director about customer expectations and service commitments, which he later said was a protected disclosure. The company denied the email reported wrongdoing. The adjudication officer found it raised process improvements and contained no facts indicating a breach of legal obligations, and concluded Heeney was not unfairly dismissed.
