As the Deputy will appreciate, I cannot give legal advice in the context of answering a Dáil question and the interpretation of the law is a matter for the Courts and relevant quasi-judicial bodies.
The National Employment Rights Authority (NERA) is mandated to secure compliance with employment rights legislation. Under the current reform programme NERA’s Information Unit has been restructured and expanded to form a new Workplace Relations Customer Service Section. This Section provides information in relation to employment, equality and industrial relations rights and obligations. It can be contacted at Lo-call: 1890 80 80 90. The website also provides extensive information on employment rights.
Complaints under any of the legislation mentioned above may be made via downloading the “Single Complaint Form” from the website .
