Place: no local area assigned from the source.

The Workplace Relations Commission dismissed Justine Geelan’s complaints against Live 5D Health, finding it had no jurisdiction over the named respondent, an unincorporated association. Adjudication Officer Louise Boyle’s decision was dated 4 June 2026.

Geelan alleged unpaid annual leave and public holiday entitlements, and disability discrimination in her dismissal after she requested time off. Live 5D Health maintained that she was a volunteer and that the association had no employees. The officer did not decide the complaints’ substantive merits, finding Geelan had not established special circumstances that would make the association liable. No award was recorded.
