James Doyle, a worker with a 20-year tenure at NZ Steel, was dismissed for serious misconduct following an internal review of his attendance records. The dismissal stemmed from up to 40 days of leave that were allegedly recorded incorrectly over a three-year period.
While the termination for serious misconduct has been executed, Doyle has pursued a personal grievance regarding the dismissal. The underlying legal and factual merits of that personal grievance have not yet been decided by adjudicators.
