“It is clear from the evidence adduced by the complainant that [two named women], who were the same nationality as members of management continued to work during lockdown, whereas the complainant, who was of a different nationality, did not,” Ms Flynn said. Regarding the largest award of €20,000 for her victimisation complaint, the commission decided that SEDA College had been notified of Ms Cardenas’ complaint to the WRC while she was on sick-leave.
