The Labour Court affirmed the dismissal of Gerard Foy’s complaint that the Health Service Executive penalised him after he reported a colleague’s assault of a resident at work. It found his report was a protected act but found no causal link to the alleged penalisation, and ruled the complaint not well founded. Foy cited criticism for sharing his report, an apology request, GDPR training and changes to work opportunities.
