The Labour Court upheld a €5,000 compensation award to Sarah Murphy after her former employer appealed the finding that she was unfairly dismissed. In a decision dated 6 December 2023, the Court affirmed the Adjudication Officer’s decision. Doyle’s Supermarket Ltd t/a Londis accepted there had been significant deficiencies in the process before Ms Murphy’s dismissal. The employer said it had since introduced a comprehensive disciplinary policy and considered the award just and equitable. Ms Murphy described her efforts to find work after losing her job, including a short-term retail position followed by about a year of unemployment.
