The Workplace Relations Commission dismissed Susan O'Neill’s discrimination complaint against Murray Ambulance Service Ltd in a decision dated 12 November 2025. The dismissal was procedural; the allegations were not determined on their merits. O'Neill alleged discrimination on family-status, sexual-orientation, body-size and appearance grounds, including a derogatory comment about her blue hair and a short-service dismissal. The ambulance service disputed the claim. O'Neill did not attend the hearing, and the WRC said it received no explanation for her absence.
