Place: no local area assigned from the source.

The WRC found an employee’s constructive dismissal complaint was not well founded. The decision was dated 26 February 2026. The employee alleged excessive workloads and poor treatment by managers. The employer said its human resources department was engaging with him and planned to investigate his concerns, but he resigned before that could happen. The adjudicator accepted that resigning was subjectively reasonable for the employee’s health, but found his resignation was not caused by unreasonable conduct by the employer, which was offering a way to raise his concerns and have them investigated.
