The Workplace Relations Commission recommended that Web Services Provider pay a Solutions Engineer €3,076, equivalent to a fortnight’s pay, after noting a flaw in the manner of his probationary dismissal: he was not given a right of appeal. The worker said he was dismissed after requesting two weeks’ notice of work travel to arrange childcare. The employer said planned and reactive travel was essential to the role and that his restrictions made him unsuitable. The adjudicator made no recommendation on the commission issue.
