The Labour Court increased Magdalena Dembinska’s working-time compensation award from €990 to €3,000 after her appeal. It found she was owed 15 days of annual leave and eight public holidays, including public holidays during maternity leave. The determination was signed on 16 December 2010. The company, Ipt Educational Courses Ltd, was in liquidation and did not attend either hearing. The Court accepted reasonable cause for Dembinska’s delay in bringing the complaint, noting that she had expected her public-holiday entitlements to be added to her annual leave when she returned from maternity leave. It varied the Rights Commissioner’s decision and awarded €3,000 compensation.
