Worker wins constructive dismissal case against West Cork Distillers via IrishTimesBiz

Mr Murphy said the job he had on the bottle line was “meant to be a temporary position only” – a situation he accepted after being told it was “very busy” while waiting to fill the marketing role.

When he pointed out to a company director that the contract “did not acknowledge the promises that had been made to him” the contract was “snapped” from him by the director, he said.Mr Murphy said he was put under “intolerable pressure” by the company directors, adding that one had “belittled” him in a WhatsApp group with staff.

Mr Murphy said the company had claimed in its legal submissions to the WRC that he had not raised any issue with it by March 2021 and that it was “not aware of his stress”, but that this was contradicted by details contained in a company doctor’s report. All three of the firm’s directors also gave evidence to an adjudication hearing in August this year, with the company denying Mr Murphy had been “promised any position in marketing”.

The WRC official in charge of the case, Jim O’Connell, recorded that the three company directors who gave evidence “each gave a different version surrounding the employment of [Mr Murphy] and the different interactions that took place during his employment”.
