Catherine provides expert advice to clients on a wide range of employment matters, helping them to manage risks and stay ahead of market trends and legal developments.

Melanie Crowley, Head of our Employment Law & Benefits team, commented: “Catherine is an accomplished and senior lawyer whose extensive experience will be a tremendous asset to our firm.

As Ireland's largest and most experienced employment law team, we help some of the biggest domestic and multinational companies to navigate the evolving legal landscape. Catherine’s appointment further reinforces our position as a leader in the field.”

Catherine O’Flynn said: “I am delighted to join Mason Hayes & Curran and look forward to working with Melanie and the team to help our clients tackle their most pressing employment law challenges.

The last 12-18 months have seen significant legislative changes and developments in the area of employment law. This trend is set to continue apace, particularly with the commencement of the AI Act and changes around pay transparency coming down the tracks.

My goal is to provide strategic guidance and support across all sectors, empowering our clients to confidently make the best decisions for their business.”

Catherine is a committee member and former Chair of the Law Society of Ireland’s Employment and Equality Law Committee. In these roles, she has made various submissions to the Irish Government on matters of Irish employment law.

Catherine will be speaking on Wednesday 18 September at our Employment Law Top Tips webinar on AI in the Workplace.
