The Labour Court recommended that Modern Kitchens Manufacturing Limited pay £500 to a worker it found had not been fairly treated when dismissed. The recommendation was dated 20 July 1998. The worker, a wood machinist, said he had been told he was suitable for the job after a trial week, then discovered it had been advertised. The company said he was on a trial period and his speed and accuracy had not improved. The Court found he had not received a letter setting out his employment details and had been dismissed in a peremptory manner. It recommended £500 compensation for the distress caused.
