Air Corps disclosure source is facing discharge

A serving Air Corps whistleblower is facing discharge as a result of a “work-related industrial dispute”.

The man, who has met with and made protected disclosures to minister of state for defence Paul Kehoe, stands accused by military superiors of “chronic ineffectivity” due to anxiety and a “work-related industrial dispute”.

The whistleblower has made disclosures about the working environment within the Air Corps — and has alleged a cover-up within the Defence Forces to hide years of inaction over concerns for workers’ health.
