The Workplace Relations Commission rejected Samantha Dwan’s constructive unfair dismissal complaint against Carmichael, finding she had resigned without exhausting internal options. The decision was dated 11 April 2025. Dwan said she could not remain at work after an investigation and suspension. Carmichael argued she resigned voluntarily before it could arrange mediation. The adjudicator found she had accepted informal mediation and resigned four days later without explaining why she could not pursue it. A duplicate complaint concerning the same matter was subsumed.
