Hi all,
I would like thoughts on this please.
I was made redundant- the process of being told was handled poorly. But there was no consultation process required as I was not on an award or enterprise agreement.
There were obvious redeployment opportunities at the time but I was not offered them. I then had to get a new job somewhere else but not out of my choice but I have bills to pay.
I had the fair work conciliation and I was advised that I could not claim for financial compensation because I already had a new role. I am not sure how getting a new job related to how my redundancy was handled.
I ended up being penalised for picking myself back up from a redundancy and getting a new job. It had an effect on my mental wellbeing and has knocked my confidence.
I feel like the company were not penalised for its actions and could do this again to another employee.
It appears that the law does not favour employees but the employer who already have access to resources than an normal individual would have.
