Ultimately, the WRC adjudication officer ruled in favor of Rooney, awarding him a total of €550,131 in compensation. This amount included €200,000 for prospective future loss of earnings, recognizing the financial impact of the dismissal on Rooney's career. The ruling also dismissed a separate claim by Rooney for a performance bonus for 2022, which was deemed not to be well-founded. The case has set a new precedent in Irish employment law, particularly concerning the interpretation of resignation and the obligations of employers to provide clear and reasonable communication when making significant changes to employment terms. Rooney's solicitor, Barry Kenny, expressed satisfaction with the outcome, noting that the ruling provided much-needed clarity and protection for employees in similar situations.
