Management of Radius Matua Rest Home and Hospital have been ordered to reinstate a worker deemed to have been unjustifiably dismissed.
In a ruling this week, the Employment Relations Authority determined the caregiver at the hospital and rest home was warned for sleeping during her shift shortly before her dismissal.
A personal grievance was raised and the matter was brought to the Authority after unsuccessful mediation.
This week the Authority ruled the applicant to be reinstated with immediate effect.
