The Labour Court reduced Noel Rodriguez’s award for unpaid Sunday work from €1,000 to €813.78, finding his complaint about 66 hours worked on Sundays well founded. The determination was dated 28 September 2016. Rodriguez told the Court he worked six hours on alternate Sundays. Fernhill Meats Limited (In Liquidation) did not contest his evidence; its liquidator said the company had no assets to pay an award. The Court found double time was the sector practice and ordered payment for the 66 hours. Rodriguez withdrew his section 21 appeal. His section 20 complaint was not determined because the Rights Commissioner had made no decision on it and no application was made to correct that omission.
