CASE REPORT HERE

According to the court case the employee had discussions with an unnamed director of Allied Brands, and said "The discussion included the applicant asking about the rent in arrears; stock that had been ordered but not arriving because the accounts were on hold; and the profit and loss statement that didn’t seem right. "

"The applicant also discussed how frustrated she was because she had not received employer contributions to superannuation since October 2008, and had notified the tax office because the issue had not been resolved."

Fair Work Australia found the dismissal illegal, calling it "harsh, unjust, and unreasonable".

• ILLEGAL DISMISSAL TO COVER UP A FINANCIALLY UN-VIABLE SHOP

• FAILURE TO PAY ENTITLEMENTS AND SUPERANNUATION

It's unknown if a franchisee was ever put in this shop which even employees could see was a financial black hole.

Clearly the illegal activities of Allied Brands are being orchestrated from the highest levels in the company.
