Place: no local area assigned from the source.

The Labour Court set aside a €6,136 award to Patrick Donohoe, finding his complaint against Msd International Gmbh Trading As Msd Carlow was not well founded. The decision was signed on 2 July 2026. Donohoe said a 2023 restructure changed his duties, reporting line and work locations without written notice. MSD said his terms had not materially changed and his contract allowed flexibility over duties, reporting lines and travel. The Court found he remained a Procurement Specialist based at Carlow and that the contract covered the changes; it found no breach of the Terms of Employment (Information) Act 1994.
