Labour Court upholds Zevas minimum-wage decision on employer’s appeal

The Labour Court upheld a Rights Commissioner’s minimum-wage decision against Zevas Communications Ltd on the employer’s appeal, leaving a €441.44 arrears award and €60 in expenses in place. The Court’s determination was dated 23 June 2005. The Court found Zevas had not kept adequate records or proved it complied with minimum-wage requirements. It could not hear the employer’s appeal concerning the separate Terms of Employment award, which lies to the Employment Appeals Tribunal; the merits of that appeal were not decided.
