WRC finds Lee Whelan’s holiday-pay complaint was out of time

Place: no local area assigned from the source.

The Workplace Relations Commission found Lee Whelan’s holiday-pay complaint was statute-barred, and the merits were not decided. Adjudication Officer Niamh O'Carroll dated the decision 5 February 2026. Whelan alleged that commission, a regular part of his pay, had not been properly included in holiday-pay calculations. Peninsula Hr And Health & Safety argued the complaint was out of time and that payments within the relevant period had been made. The adjudicator found no proper application or reasonable-cause submission to extend the time limit. The complaint was therefore not well-founded under the statutory time limit.
