Place: no local area assigned from the source.

The Workplace Relations Commission found Katarzyna Skula’s unfair dismissal complaint against Tesco Ireland Ltd not well founded. The decision, dated 22 September 2025, said the supermarket’s investigation and disciplinary process were thorough and procedurally correct. Skula said self-scanner errors were minor and unintentional, that she had not received proper training and that dismissal was disproportionate. Tesco said its fraud prevention work identified dishonest scanning, supported by CCTV, and that a thorough investigation followed. The adjudicator considered the dismissal within the bounds of reasonableness.
