The Labour Court recommended dismissing a worker’s unfair dismissal claim against Bowen Construction Limited. The recommendation was signed on 11 October 2010. The worker, a high tower crane driver, sought reversal of his dismissal and compensation for lost earnings. Bowen Construction said it had investigated the incident and followed disciplinary procedures before dismissing him for gross misconduct. The Court noted his admission of negligence in failing to follow safety procedures, which led to a collision between two cranes. It found no evidence of unfair treatment and dismissed the claim.
