Labour Court finds Parkwall Taverns worker was not unfairly dismissed

In 1989, the Labour Court found that a worker was not unfairly dismissed by Parkwall Taverns Limited and recommended no further action. The recommendation was signed on 13 January 1989. The Court noted the company’s undertaking to pay any statutory entitlements due and provide a reference. The worker, a senior assistant barperson, said he was dismissed without an explanation or payment in lieu of notice. Parkwall Taverns Limited said it dismissed him during probation after concerns about his conduct and handling of cash. The Court’s finding was that he was not unfairly dismissed.
