Barmaid’s hours cut after diagnosis

The Workplace Relations Commission (WRC) has ordered that a publican pay the barmaid, referrred to as Ms D, €20,000. The commission found that he discriminated against her on the grounds of gender and disability.
Ms D suffers from endometriosis, a uterine disorder: the tissue that lines the uterus grows in other parts of the body, such as ovaries, the fallopian tubes, and on the bladder, causing chronic pain.
