Criminal records could be erased
It follows a recent ruling by the EAT to uphold the decision of a homecare services provider to sack a female employee who failed to disclose the full extent of her past criminal convictions on a Garda vetting form.
The tribunal sympathised with the situation of Rita Donoghue, a homecare worker lost her claim for unfair dismissal by Dublin West Home Help where she had worked for eight years.
