Director at Irish arm of video game company granted injunction blocking his dismissal

A director of an Irish subsidiary of video game giant Electronic Arts has secured a High Court injunction restraining his employer from dismissing him from his €160,000 post.

The order was made in favour of Jean Philippe Grenet, 56, who is the director of global delivery service for Electronic Arts Ireland (EA) in Galway, who was initially dismissed for allegedly making an inappropriate comment in a one to one video call with a colleague in November.
