Resignations | Page 13 (209 items)

The fact that an employee's resignation coincided with another company's job offer undermined the "multiplicity of reasons" he gave to support his constructive dismissal claim, the Fair Work Commission has ruled.

The Fair Work Commission has chastised an employer for treating a long-serving manager "with disdain", but has stopped short of finding its conduct was aimed at ending his employment.

An employee did "exactly what he should have done" when a colleague threatened to fight him several times, the Fair Work Commission has found in awarding him compensation for unfair dismissal.

An employer's response to workplace bullying "fell well short of adequate", but it gave an employee several reasonable alternatives to resignation, the Fair Work Commission has found.

The Federal Circuit Court has criticised an HR manager's decision to sack an employee rather than deal with the "dilemma" of her bullying allegations, and fined him $7.6k.

An employee may have been "justifiably irate" by managers' alleged bullying behaviour towards her, but their actions were "not so significant" that they forced her to resign, the Fair Work Commission has ruled.

An employee who threatened to make a general protections claim if her employer didn't agree to her separation terms was not forced to resign, the Fair Work Commission has ruled.

An employee who had asked to reduce her hours while she attempted to manage some personal issues was not dismissed when she was subsequently left off the employer's roster, the Fair Work Commission has found.

Reducing an HR manager's responsibilities after she complained about her excessive workload did not amount to a constructive dismissal, the Fair Work Commission has ruled.

An employer has failed to prove a long-serving employee "decided to jump before she was pushed", when she verbally resigned after it made serious allegations against her.
