Workplace Relations Commission ·

The Workplace Relations Commission recommended in a retail assistant’s favour in her dispute over changed working hours. The worker and her representative did not attend the hearing; the merits were not decided. The recommendation was dated 10 June 2022. The worker alleged that the retailer changed her hours without agreement. The retailer denied having a case to answer. The adjudicator said the worker had been informed in writing of the hearing and was absent, then recommended in her favour under section 13 of the Industrial Relations Act 1969.
