The commission found the cafe supervisor was 'merely trying to express a view' when she sent a text message to her general manager about rostering.
The Fair Work Commission found the cafe supervisor was"merely trying to express a view" when she sent a text message to her general manager about rostering, and that her dismissal was unreasonable.
In the messages, the supervisor expressed that the business needed to hire another staff member for their other venue to manage understaffing.Fair Work Commissioner Chris Simpson concluded the supervisor was "merely trying to express a view as to what would be in the best interests of the business in regard to staffing across the two venues".
One week after being dismissed, the supervisor said the general manager spoke with her and offered two weeks paid leave and a position running a new store - which was not agreed to.
