The Workplace Relations Commission concluded an Employment Equality Act investigation against Abdurrahim Cakan after he did not attend a hearing, and found four other complaints not well-founded. The decision by Adjudication Officer Catherine Byrne was dated 29 October 2025. The equality complaint alleged discrimination, but Cakan did not attend to present supporting evidence. The other complaints concerned paternity leave and benefit, consumer protection and parental leave. The respondent, Pattina Products Limited, was represented at the hearing. No monetary award was recorded.
