Byrne said workplace conflict and management’s conduct led her to resign. The company denied the claim and said she had not used its grievance procedures. The adjudication officer accepted that Byrne faced a stressful situation but found she had not shown a significant breach of contract and had not used the company’s bullying or grievance procedures before resigning.
