Place: no local area assigned from the source.

The Labour Court made no recommendation on a worker’s trade dispute with former employer Padraic Dwane And Sons Transport Limited. The recommendation was signed on 3 April 2023. The worker sought compensation for alleged breaches of employment rights and damages to his mental and physical health. The Court said the referral was a trade dispute, not a case about a potential breach of employment legislation, and that it could not administer justice on those alleged breaches through this process. It also cited the two-year delay and the worker’s failure to pursue or exhaust available avenues with the former employer.
