TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT – remedy – compensation – ss.392, 394 Fair Work Act 2009 – application for unfair dismissal remedy – previous decision determined dismissal was harsh and found dismissal unfair [[2016] FWC 9089] – found reinstatement not appropriate and insufficient material to make a decision on compensation – further submissions sought – Sprigg considered – Commission found whilst applicant’s employment was previously unblemished, this was outweighed by his current display of contempt for management – Commission found applicant did not understand or appreciate seriousness of his actions and would inevitably leave his employment voluntarily or otherwise – found unreasonable effort to mitigate his loss – amount of compensation further reduced because applicant’s misconduct contributed to reason for dismissal – ordered compensation of $2,014.89 plus superannuation.
