Ruck v API Australian Pharmaceutical [PR973709]

Unfair Dismissal Victoria Cases AWDR
Posted by: AWDR

This case demonstrates an example of when an employer lodged a jurisdictional objection.

Ms Ruck commenced her employment with API in 2000; she resigned on 6 July 2006. API filed a jurisdictional objection to Ms Ruck’s claim, stating that as she had resigned, her application should be dismissed.

On 21 August 2006 Senior Deputy President Watson handed down a decision, stating that Ms Ruck had been forced to resign, and therefore, termination was at the initiative of API.
