    I'd give the place a wide bearth - their managing director David O Connor the hero of the Vita Cortex workers strike that time when he arranged a call with Sir Alex Ferguson manager of Manchester United:
    http://www.irishexaminer.com/ireland/kfidmhqlmhgb/rss2/

    has just had a judgement against him for not paying his own staff.:mad:
    It's one thing giving away jackets on the newspapers - another thing altogether if you are not even paying your own workers. :mad:

    Register to slate? -not at all.
    The judgement was issued in the last week 2 weeks, but unfortunately for the claimant the amount awarded was less than the legal fees.
    Still it beggars belief that a guy like David O Connor, can have such a neck to be all over the press claiming to represent workers rights when he doesn't even pay his own staff. Watch this space, there is more to come, believe me.

    You should really check your sources before you start spreading crap like that. i have worked for Dave O Connor for years. We have never had a problem with our pay. You are talking utter rubbish.

    The lies that you are advertising have a direct affect on the staff of this company, and maybe you should show some consideration to the staff before you advertise things that are utterly untrue!!

    Check it out - looks like this was for real:

    http://www.labourcourt.ie/labour/labcourtweb.nsf/cfcbbe5c5fe85fa680256a01005bb356/80256a770034a2ab80257a2500350dcd?OpenDocument

    "Having considered all of the circumstances of this case I recommend that he be paid compensation of €5,000""

    A friend of mine in Galway says there are another 3 cases of non-payment of staff.

    And on top of all that a related company dialasuit that was registered last year is already listed for strike-off: http://www.vision-net.ie/Company-Info/Dial-A-Suit-Limited-498199

    Dodgeville!!

    As a staunch trade unionist S'Alex will not like to be associated with a company that exploits staff no end.
