Amy Greene v Floreat Hotel CEH Group T/A Floreat Hotel

Amy Greene filed an application for unfair dismissal remedy against Floreat Hotel CEH Group, trading as Floreat Hotel. The dispute arose from Greene's termination of employment by the hotel, which she contested as unjust and in breach of her employment rights. The case was heard in the Fair Work Commission.

The central legal issues revolved around whether Greene's dismissal was indeed unfair and whether the hotel had a valid reason to terminate her employment. The court examined the grounds for termination as provided by the hotel, the procedural fairness of the dismissal process, and whether the hotel complied with the relevant provisions of the Fair Work Act 2009.

In its decision, the commission found that the hotel did not provide sufficient justification for Greene's termination and that the process leading to her dismissal was not conducted fairly. The commission concluded that the termination was unfair and that Floreat Hotel CEH Group did not meet the burden of proving that the dismissal was for a valid reason. Consequently, the commission ordered that Greene be reinstated to her position and awarded her compensation for the period of unlawful termination.

The final orders included Greene's reinstatement to her previous role, along with financial compensation for lost earnings and other related entitlements. The hotel was also directed to ensure compliance with fair dismissal procedures in the future.
