Hi there
I have been employed with my company for 11 years. We are currently based in the city centre. Last week we were told that we would be closing our town office and all moved to Sandyford. This will mean having to drive to work 40 miles a day, use the toll and pay for parking, this comes in at around €400 a month. I cannot afford this and have looked for voluntary redundancy based on the reasons outlined above, mainly cost and life work balance. The company have declined, should I proceed and apeal to the Employees Tribunal board?? Do I need a solicitor? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
A family member was in a similar position to yourself a couple of years ago, living on the Northside and working in town, when his company announced they were moving. He thought it was going to be a nightmare and totally unworkable to have to travel to Sandyford every day. In the end, it worked out fine - the public transport links were great and only added about 20 mins to his door to door journey. So you never know - it might turn out a little better than you thought.
Just curious - Was this mileage taxable?when we moved offices from Sandyford, a deal was done in which mileage was paid for 2 years at a reducing rate for any staff who had a longer commute. Given the current climate, why not try and negotiate a deal with your employers rather then quitting your job?
