Labour Court awards Rares Iacob four weeks’ pay on appeal

The Labour Court awarded Rares Iacob compensation equivalent to four weeks’ pay after finding that Aran Security Limited had not provided the required written statement of employment terms. The determination was signed on 7 July 2017. The Court overturned the earlier failure for want of prosecution, which followed Iacob’s non-attendance; the merits were not decided at that hearing. The company suggested Iacob had chosen not to sign a contract during induction. The Court found that suggestion far-fetched and not credible. The award was not taxable, the determination said.
