Travelodge Management Limited v Sylwia Wach

• Case Reference

  [2015] ILCR Determination No. EDA 1511

• Legal Body

  Labour Court (LC)

• Type of Claim / Jurisdiction

  Tribunal Practice, Procedures and Jurisdictional Issues

This appeal concerns the Respondent’s identity. The Equality Tribunal had awarded compensation in favour of the complainant for discrimination and victimisation. However, on appeal the Respondent company proved that the Complainant was in fact employed by a different company which was not party to proceedings. As a result, the Labour Court overturned the Tribunal’s award, despite the evident bona fide mistake of the Complainant in taking the case against the incorrect Respondent.
