The Workplace Relations Commission (WRC) ruled that the Camden Court Hotel had unfairly dismissed its restaurant manager and had been “disingenuous” in its treatment of him. The hotel has been ordered to pay the former manager €9,000.
A well-known Dublin hotel has been ordered to pay a former restaurant manager €9,000 over its failure to call him back to work after the business re-opened following its closure at the start of the Covid-19 pandemic.
He gave evidence that he had been placed on leave since March 25, 2020 and was in receipt of the weekly pandemic payment of €350. He asked in July 2020 about his return to work when he became aware the coffee dock in the hotel’s lobby which fell under his department had reopened.He said the bar and restaurant reopened in December 2020 but he had not been invited back to work.
His solicitor, Setanta Landers, claimed the Camden Court Hotel had provided no information on any objective criteria it might have used for which staff it selected to return to work.
