The Workplace Relations Commission (WRC) closed Gareth McDonald’s discrimination complaint against Actavo after he did not attend a hearing on 23 February 2026. In a decision dated 9 March 2026, adjudication officer Catherine Byrne said he had six weeks’ notice and found his failure to attend unreasonable. McDonald’s complaint alleged discrimination under the Employment Equality Act. The WRC did not assess whether discrimination occurred; it concluded the investigation because he was absent and found against him. No award was recorded.
