The Workplace Relations Commission found Olivia Roughneen’s complaint against HSE West was not well founded. The decision, dated 10 April 2026, concerned her claim of less favourable treatment and successive fixed-term contracts. The adjudicator found that the colleague Roughneen relied on held a different grade, with no direct evidence of the colleague’s permanent status. Roughneen had completed two years in the Grade VII role when she lodged her complaint, short of the three-year threshold under the Act.
