The Labour Court upheld a €6,033 award to Ian Mulcahy on McCurrach UK Limited’s appeal, confirming that the company owed him nine weeks’ pay in lieu of notice. The determination was dated 18 December 2018. Mulcahy said the company withheld the contractual notice pay when it dismissed him without notice. McCurrach argued that its staff handbook excluded notice pay in cases of summary dismissal, but accepted that Mulcahy’s dismissal was not summary. The Court found the payment was wages under the Payment of Wages Act and that the contractual sum had not been paid.
