In the Unfair Dismissal Case U2023/719, Sam King filed a claim against Fingal Bay Service Station & Tyre Service Pty Ltd for unfairly dismissing him from his job. The case was heard by the Fair Work Commission, where King argued that his dismissal was unjustified and without proper notice.
He claimed that he was not given a chance to respond to the allegations against him and that the employer did not follow proper procedures in terminating his employment.
The employer, on the other hand, argued that King was dismissed for serious misconduct, including theft and dishonesty. After considering the evidence presented by both parties, the Fair Work Commission found that the employer did not follow proper procedures in dismissing King and that he was unfairly dismissed.
As a result, the commission ordered the employer to pay King compensation for lost wages and other entitlements.
