WRC closes expired warning dispute but makes no recommendation on bullying claim

The WRC recommended closing a worker’s dispute over a verbal warning because the warning had expired. The recommendation was dated 17 June 2025. On the separate bullying dispute, the officer found that an alleged incident on 29 May 2023 was a single occasion and did not meet the code’s requirement for repeated behaviour. The worker had not used the employer’s grievance procedure for later allegations, so the officer said she could not intervene and made no recommendation on that dispute.
