WRC dismisses Teagasc pay complaint after rejected contract offer

By Gráinne Nolan

Historic decision · Decision date:

Place: no local area assigned from the source.

The Workplace Relations Commission dismissed Martin Browne’s complaint against Teagasc under the Protection of Employees (Fixed-Term Work) Act 2003. Browne argued he should have kept his previous salary-scale point when offered a new contract after a short break. The WRC found his first contract had ended and he had rejected the offer, so he was not a fixed-term employee eligible to bring the complaint. No award was recorded.
