Labour Court upholds decision rejecting worker’s appeal over Road Safety Authority training

The Labour Court upheld the decision rejecting a worker’s appeal over training and seniority for permanent posts at the Road Safety Authority. The worker said later training meant lower-ranked candidates gained seniority first and secured permanent posts. The Authority said seniority began when work started and regional training avoided travel and subsistence costs. The Court found the worker’s claim and appeal failed. The decision was dated 23 February 2022.
