The Labour Court reduced John Brooks’s €7,500 award to €1,000 on R & M Quarries Ltd’s appeal, finding his working-hours complaint not well founded but upholding his annual-leave complaint. The determination was dated 16 February 2012. Brooks, a truck driver, said the company counted five days without available work as annual leave. The Court found he averaged 46.25 hours a week during the four-month reference period, below the 48-hour limit. It found the five days had not been granted in line with statutory requirements and awarded €1,000 compensation.
