The WRC awarded €1,000 compensation to an administrative assistant after finding her accrued annual leave was unpaid when her employment ended. The decision was dated 13 July 2026. The employer said payroll problems during a move to an in-house system caused an error, which it corrected after the issue was raised. The adjudicator said the employer was responsible for settling outstanding obligations when employment ended and found the delay caused inconvenience and distress.
