Fertility clinic ordered to pay worker €23k for unfair dismissal during pandemic

Sims Clinic Ltd - with clinics in north and south Dublin, Cork and Carlow - stated that the restrictions on foreign travel meant that it was not able to arrange for egg donation procedures to be carried out and the service was suspended.
One of the country’s best known fertility clinics, Sims Clinic must pay an ex-Egg Donation Programme Co-Ordinator €23,160 compensation for her unfair dismissal.
This follows Workplace Relations Commission (WRC) Adjudicator, Catherine Byrne, ordering the Sims Clinic Ltd to pay Aoife Murphy the €23,160 concerning her unfair dismissal during the pandemic.
