The Workplace Relations Commission has dismissed a claim by a catering manager that he was discriminated against by University Hospital Limerick over its handling of a grievance he had raised because he was a white, Irish male.
Cathal Russell claimed UHL had taken six weeks to formally reply to a grievance he had raised with the hospital, where it had dealt with a grievance by a non-national, female staff member within 48 hours.
Mr Russell complained that he had been discriminated against under the Employment Equality Act, 1998 on a number of grounds including gender and race.
