The Labour Court increased Kenneth Travers’s public-holiday award to €550 and awarded him €1,906 for an annual-leave breach. The determination was signed on 25 February 2016. Travers appealed Rights Commissioner decisions concerning public holidays and annual leave against Annaclone Construction Limited T/A M.&T. Builders. The Court found he was not entitled to benefits for public holidays during a period when his employment contract was suspended, but awarded compensation for three additional holidays. It also found 87.7 hours of annual leave had accrued, with €906 unpaid, and described the breach as egregious.
