What it means for employers
Employers should ensure dismissal decisions are carefully considered and documented, demonstrating a fair and objective assessment of the employee’s performance and conduct. Decisions should be consistent with relevant legislation and case law.

Employees appealing unfair dismissal decisions should be aware that the Full Bench will scrutinise the original decision for errors of law or approach. Appeals are not guaranteed to succeed.
