The Labour Court varied the holiday-pay award to Jack Delaney, ordering Kevin Delanty Food Co Ltd T/A Verde to pay €679.57 for economic loss and €250 compensation. The determination was dated 3 March 2020, following an appeal by the employer. Delaney said he had not received annual leave for the months he worked in 2018, though he confirmed receiving his 2019 entitlement. The company said it had allowed flexible working and that Delaney did not want leave in 2018. The parties accepted that the statutory entitlement had been breached and that 66.30 hours were owed. The Court said employers have an onus to familiarise themselves with their obligations under the Act.
