Paying employees on termination - Lessons for sports clubs and businesses

About this episode

The episode discusses the legal requirements for paying employees upon termination and the implications for sports clubs and businesses in Ireland.

Employers in Ireland are required to pay employees all wages owed to them on termination of their employment. A failure to pay will be deemed an unlawful deduction. Due to an increase in claims brought against sports clubs and other organisations in the sports sector, our Sports Law team examines recent Workplace Relations Commission (WRC) decisions that illustrate how the law applies in practice. The team also outlines the potential consequences for employers who fail to comply.
