Lawsuit * Australia - NBS Transport forced to defend driver sacking

Sydney,NSW,Australia -ATN, by Brad Gardner -July 12, 2010: -- A NSW transport operator will be forced to defend its decision to sack a truck driver after Fair Work Australia upheld an unfair dismissal application... Commissioner Frank Raffaelli last week granted Michael Osmond permission to pursue his claim after finding he met a requirement to lodge an unfair dismissal through Fair Work Australia... NBS Transport tried to have the application dismissed on jurisdictional grounds because Osmond did not meet the minimum six months work time required under the Fair Work Act to lodge an unfair dismissal... Under the Act, casual employment does not count toward staff employment period unless there is the expectation of continuing work on a regular and systematic basis... The dispute between Osmond and NBS was originally sent to conciliation but both parties failed to reach an agreement... (Photo from farm3.static.flickr: NBS Transport )
