The Labour Court directed MFC Foods Limited T/A Dessert First to pay Mr Robert Blazsik €252 after finding his written terms omitted his expected daily working hours. The determination was dated 12 May 2022. Blazsik appealed an adjudication officer’s decision under the Terms of Employment (Information) Act 1994. He worked as an assistant baker. His second statement listed 24 weekly hours with variable roster times but did not state his expected hours for a normal working day. The company acknowledged the omission and said his normal day was an eight-hour shift. The Court found the statement did not meet the Act’s requirement to state expected daily hours. It directed the company to pay compensation equal to one week’s gross pay. The appeal succeeded, resulting in a €252 award.
