Commissioner Cloghan from the Fair Work Commission has found that our client Karen Harris was unfairly dismissed by her former employer WorkPac, following allegations from a former worker of bullying and harassment constituting “gross misconduct”. Commissioner Cloghan found that these allegations were not proved by the Respondent to the reasonable satisfaction of FWC, and warned against “excessive sensitivity” in workplace environments.
We are extremely pleased about this unfair dismissal claim outcome for Karen, and wish her best of luck in the future.
