Labour Court rejects Kristine Viksna’s accommodation appeal

Place: no local area assigned from the source.

The Labour Court has dismissed Kristine Viksna’s appeal against a finding that her complaint over reasonable accommodation was not well founded. The determination, signed on 27 July 2026, recorded no monetary award. Viksna alleged Cardinal Health Ireland Manufacturing Limited failed to accommodate a work injury. The Court said it was unclear whether she had established a disability under the Employment Equality Act, a prerequisite for the employer’s accommodation duty. A separate dismissal allegation linked to her WRC referral was treated as a duplicate of a complaint considered in a related appeal.
