The Labour Court recommended that Grant Thornton pay €1,500 to a worker who was unfairly dismissed during probation. The recommendation was signed on 9 August 2017. The worker said she had been hired as a Senior Pensions Administrator but was given junior-level tasks and dismissed after a meeting in May. Grant Thornton said she had accepted termination during probation and failed to perform satisfactorily. The Court found the firm had decided to dismiss her before the meeting, did not explain its purpose, did not allow her to bring someone with her and provided no appeal process.
