The decision of Commissioner Harrison in this interlocutory application may shed some light on how the FWA intends to interpret section 596 of the  Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth).<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=goshawklaw.wordpress.com&amp;blog=9360981&amp;post=346&amp;subd=goshawklaw&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In an application under s.394 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth), a worker was successful in obtaining compensation of $9,522 for unfair dismissal. The reason for the dismissal was the worker’s alleged failure to meet a weekly sales quota.  The employer was not legally represented and made some serious tactical and technical errors before and during the hearing which arguably lost them the case. Goshawk discusses some important lessons for employers in light of the Commissioner’s comments in this case.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=goshawklaw.wordpress.com&amp;blog=9360981&amp;post=321&amp;subd=goshawklaw&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
