Labour Court recommends reference and £500 for Fitzpatrick’s Castle Hotel worker

In 1998, the Labour Court recommended that Fitzpatrick’s Castle Hotel give a waitress a satisfactory reference and £500 compensation after finding she had not been treated fairly. The recommendation was dated 2 April 1998. The worker said she had been dismissed unfairly and bullied by a restaurant manager. The hotel said she was on probation and had performance and presentation shortcomings. The hotel did not attend the hearing but sent its defence in writing; the Court considered the evidence before making its recommendation.
