Dalata ordered to pay €50,000 for dismissal of Sligo hotel manager via IrishTimesBiz

Fergal Ryan, the former general manager of the Clayton Hotel in Sligo, complained against Dalata Hotel Group plc under the Unfair Dismissals Act.A hotel manager accused of breaching his employer’s cash handling rules to make payments to workers off-payroll has been awarded €50,000 by the Workplace Relations Commission for unfair dismissal.

The hotel group maintained Mr Ryan committed gross misconduct by approving cash payments to workers, having being warned not to do so after paying his partner, Kasia Smolinska, to cover a restaurant shift on Christmas Day 2018. An internal investigation found that after being warned by the hotel’s accountant not to use petty cash to pay workers, Mr Ryan went on to make such payments to three other staff that spring.

His solicitor, Barry Creed, said the allegations were only put to Mr Ryan after his client turned down a proposed severance offer in May 2019. In its decision, WRC adjudicating officer Catherine Byrne found Mr Ryan had “no credible explanation” for bringing his partner in to work on Christmas Day.
