The Labour Court has rejected Siobhán Kelly’s appeal against Computer Placement Ltd, upholding the finding that her unfair dismissal complaint was not well founded. The decision was signed on 24 April 2025. The Court found it was reasonable to dismiss Kelly for gross misconduct after she engaged a relative without authorisation and approved timesheets over 52 weeks without credible evidence of work. It acknowledged shortcomings in the investigation but found they were not serious enough to make the dismissal unfair. Kelly had argued that flaws in the investigation and disciplinary process made the dismissal unfair.
