Salesman wins 7,500 over office 'culture' of derogatory language about Travellers

The Workplace Relations Commission (WRC) made the award to the worker, Raymond Nevin, after finding that there was a "culture and tolerance" of the use of such "derogatory terminology" towards Travellers at CPF (Profiles) Ltd in Longford.
