The Workplace Relations Commission awarded Peter O'Flaherty €5,250 for unfair dismissal and €1,400 for a breach of minimum-notice rules. The decision was dated 1 May 2026. John Kelly Couriers Ltd cited performance, conduct and safety concerns, which O'Flaherty denied. The WRC found he had been dismissed without notice or payment in lieu, and that the employer had not formally investigated the concerns, held a disciplinary meeting or offered an appeal. It upheld both complaints.
