WRC rejects Cassie Greene’s constructive dismissal claim against Kareplan

The Workplace Relations Commission found Cassie Greene’s constructive unfair dismissal complaint against Kareplan was not well founded, ruling that she resigned prematurely without using the company’s internal grievance process. The decision was dated 4 June 2024. Greene said proposed changes to her role after maternity leave and difficulties at work led her to resign. Kareplan said her duties would remain the same, with additional scheduling requirements assigned to a colleague. The adjudicator found the evidence about whether her role had been demoted unclear and not decisive; the failure to pursue the grievance process was decisive.
