Key Employment Law Rights in Ireland
Irish employment law provides strong protections for both employees and employers. Key legislation includes the Unfair Dismissals Acts, the Payment of Wages Act, the Organisation of Working Time Act, the Employment Equality Acts, and the Protected Disclosures Act. Understanding your rights and obligations under these Acts is essential — and getting it wrong can be costly.
WRC Claims in Ireland
The Workplace Relations Commission (WRC) is Ireland’s employment dispute resolution body. Employees can bring claims for unfair dismissal, discrimination, unpaid wages, and many other issues. You generally have 6 months from the date of the alleged breach to submit a claim. O’Grady Solicitors & Co. prepare full WRC submissions at a fixed fee.
For Employers: Protecting Your Business
Employers face increasing legal obligations around contracts, working time, workplace policies, and data protection. Our New Employer Starter Pack provides everything an Irish business needs when taking on staff for the first time — employment contracts, a staff handbook, and core HR policies — all at a fixed fee.
