Wow 1000€, big amount of money. Now worker can buy lot of gas with that amount to go to office.
Is the title missing a couple of 0’s?
€1,000 is paltry enough, but it’s the precedence set that’s valuable to everyone, really.
The WRC fossils very obviously expressing what they think of remote working.
Legislations still useless, he got a grand in comp solely because they didn’t respond to his request within a month.
The fine was for how long they took to respond to the employee’s request. Nothing to do with their RTO order. I know it’s been said before but what a fucking toothless piece of legislation. Doesn’t advocate for or protect employees at all
> The Workplace Relations Commission (WRC) made the award solely for the business software company’s failure to respond in time to a formal request for a remote work arrangement
So actually nothing to do with any findings on remote working, they got fined because they violated a procedural rule :/
It’s we’ll know a certain outsourced HR provider with head office in Manchester is in cahoots with the WRC to screw workers in most cases – it just can’t be evidenced;
‘The Workplace Relations Commission (WRC) made the award solely for the business software company’s failure to respond in time to a formal request for a remote work arrangement by the worker, Thomas Farrell, after he was told last year that he was required back in the office three to four times a week.’
🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦
I don’t think the WRC are ever going to give any meaningful ruling on WFH unless the company has broken some term in the contract where WFH is guaranteed, they are never going to hold up a refusal for WFH as the company can just say the employee is needed in the building for business needs, which the WRC can’t really rule against. Unless there is some legislation change then we are at the mercy of company policies.
Just to be clear here, they ruled in favour of the employee because the employer dropped the ball with the process. They were supposed to reply to the employee within 4 weeks of the formal request.
The WRC did NOT rule in favour of the employee because they thought the move back to the office was unreasonable.
