The Labour Court recommended that Waterford And Wexford Etb reject Ms Cunningham’s €16,316.04 claim for full maternity pay during tutor hours. The recommendation was dated 11 July 2016. Cunningham said she understood that an assurance covered all her teaching and tutoring hours during maternity leave, and that she signed her contracts on that basis. The Court found no evidence that full pay for tutor hours had been agreed. Her tutor contracts said paid leave was under review and did not provide for salary during statutory maternity leave. The Court found the claim not well founded.
