Place: no local area assigned from the source.

The Labour Court affirmed the rejection of Freddie Joseph Marks’s complaint against Waterford City/County Council trading as WCCC over a claimed change to his employment terms. The decision was signed on 7 November 2025. Marks said his assignment to supervise cemetery work in Dungarvan changed his terms and that the council failed to engage with him. The council denied breaching the law. The Court found that a 2019 email had notified him that cemetery supervision was part of his Foreman role, and that no breach occurred during the period covered by the complaint.
