Female job applicant who was asked if she was married paid €7,500 in compensation
An ‘old school’ boss of an electrical firm who asked a female job applicant at interview was she married, did she have children and her age has been ordered to pay €7,500 compensation to the woman.
Adjudication Officer at the Workplace Relations Commission (WRC), Anne McElduff has found that the questions asked by the 58 year old company owner at interview on October 26th 2018 were discriminatory.
