Housemate Putting Fellow Tenants In Danger

Ask yourself. Who has access to the keys left in the door, on a busy street.

Riding whatever she picks up in a club - fine. An employer will only care if she screws a client, unwilling colleague or some other professional connection (judge, guard etc) - and then only if it brings the firm into disrepute.

But lack of basic cop-on with regard to premises security is absolutely something an employer would care about. Particularly from someone who will likely be handling confidential materials and have access to secure areas.

Next time she leaves her key in the front door, I reckon it just goes missing. None of the housemates took it (honest!!!) - it just disappears.

It's just another wind-up job. And also maybe cultural appropriation cos I doubt they're Sioux.

You're saying an employer would be concerned with an employee mistakenly leaving their keys in the front door of their private residence once or twice?

Half the country should be out of a job so

They said "frequently leave keys in front door"

Can't be much of a job if they don't care about accuracy, attention to detail, security or GDPR. Because these things are ingrained habits.

Trying to interfere with someone's employment as a third-party outsider can leave you open to being sued under tort law.

Stay away from their employer.

It also could start a serious feud since people don't appreciate having their livelihood taken away.

Feud lol. That ship has sailed.

People don't appreciate to having their belongings stolen or waking up to a stranger in their room.

Make an official Complaint to the LL. If they don't do anything. Report them to the RTB for antisocial behaviour.

If she leaves the keys on the door take them and don't say anything let her stew. She'll have to fess up that she's done it again. She's not going to take legal action. 

Your LL is not a social worker or mediator, they don't want to hear complaints from you and if they get involved in kicking her out she could take them to the RTB. 

Give her a warning that if the keys are left in the door or the door left open again by her she'll be kicked out by you and the other tenant and replaced. You'll need to have enough money to cover her rent for month and you'll need to email the LL that you've given her the warning as it's simply gotten out of hand. 

If she does it again tell her she either accepts that she's gone or comes home to find her stuff in bags ready to go into the street - she's a week to find somewhere. 

Look for keys in the house to see if there is one for her room so that you can either lock it you can open it if she locks it.

If you do kick her out, what's she going to do about it. Go court, appeal to the RTB, both would take time and her name would be in the public domain. Any future employer could google her and the legal profession is a small world in Ireland, she won't want to get a name for herself.

If a complaint is made to the RTB about antisocial behaviour its the RTB that will rule on it not a court. A court would be unlikely to overrule the RTB. A Landlord is not going to ignore the RTB.

It will never get that far, she won't want her name on record. All LL's and employers will search her name on google, if anything from this came up it would simply be next please.

Maybe not. But she sounds arrogant, stupid and stubborn. Not all that rational.
