Labour Court rejects worker’s appeal against Noonan Services

The Labour Court dismissed a cleaning operative’s appeal against findings on her complaints against Noonan Services Limited. The determination was dated 29 July 2011. She said her transfer from clean-room duties to day work reduced her pay and hours. The Court found the clean room required English skills for record-keeping and communication with auditors, and that requirement was justified. It rejected her disability, race discrimination, age harassment, equal pay and victimisation complaints. The Court disallowed the appeal and affirmed the Equality Tribunal’s decision.
