WRC rules McDonagh’s unfair dismissal complaint out of time

The Workplace Relations Commission ruled Sorcha McDonagh’s unfair dismissal complaint against The Office of the Revenue Commissioners was out of time and that it had no jurisdiction to award redress. Adjudication officer Bríd Deering dated the decision 5 September 2025. The adjudicator found McDonagh resigned effective 19 November 2022 and was not an employee when she said she was dismissed in December 2024. The Commission accepted that continued salary payments and mobility emails resulted from administrative errors and did not renew or create an employment contract.
