WRC rejects Margaret O’Leary’s complaints against Southside Travellers Action Group

The Workplace Relations Commission rejected Margaret O’Leary’s complaints against Southside Travellers Action Group in a decision dated 17 November 2025. No monetary award was recorded. O’Leary alleged discrimination over investigations into her Carer’s Leave application, union representation and working from home, and said the investigation was penalisation. The respondent said no adverse finding or sanction followed and that she had not requested to work from home in September 2024. The adjudication officer found the Carer’s Leave complaint was outside the WRC’s jurisdiction and not well founded. The Equality complaint was not upheld because the allegations were unsupported by credible evidence.
