Milne v New Leaf Beauty Therapy Ltd [2011] NZERA Wellington 151
BuckettLaw acted for an employee who had been unjustifiably dismissed by way of redundancy. The Employment Relations Authority determined the dismissal was procedurally unjustified as the employer failed to advise it was considering making the employee’s position redundant or provide any information as to how it formed that view. The employee was awarded compensation for the hurt and humiliation of a dismissal, reimbursement of lost wages and a contribution to her legal costs.
