A WRC adjudication officer recommended that a company offer a worker €2,000 after finding that his dismissal without a formal disciplinary hearing breached the company’s own policy and natural justice. The recommendation was dated 17 April 2026. The worker had about three months’ service and said he was dismissed without warnings or a chance to respond. The company said he had performance problems, including an error it valued at €900, and that an external HR company heard his appeal. The officer accepted that he had performance problems but found that the company’s policy entitled him to a formal hearing. The recommendation was for €2,000 compensation to settle the dispute.
