Working Towards Wellness -
Organisations have a unique and vital role in improving the
wellness, health and physical fitness of employees not only in
the developed world but also around the globe, particularly in
those countries where increasing rates of chronic disease will
take an increasing toll
The court confirmed that the duty of a commissioner, when
deciding whether or not a sanction of dismissal is
appropriate, must not decide whether the employer acted
reasonably, nor must s/he defer in any way to the employer.
The commissioner must decide the issue on the basis of
his/her own sense of fairness. The award itself should
furthermore be lawful, reasonable and procedurally fair,
otherwise it would not meet the constitutional requirement
that administrative action must be reasonable. The court
continued:
There are not a [closed category] of factors that a
commissioner must take into account in considering
sanction. The commissioner must take into account all
the circumstances; consider the importance of the rule
breached; consider the reason the employer imposed the
sanction of dismissal, as he or she must take into
account the basis of the employee’s challenge to the
dismissal; consider the harm caused by the employee’s
conduct; consider whether additional training and
instruction may result in the employee not repeating the
misconduct; consider the effect of dismissal on the
employee and consider the employee’s service record.
