Fair Work Act – Extension of time when exceptional circumstances (redundancy)

[2015] FWC 482 NSW Schneider v Apollo Motorhome Holidays (A’s discovery “of information relevant to her dismissal on the grounds of redundancy which caused her to doubt the genuineness of that redundancy was sufficiently unusual to constitute exceptional circumstances” @19 – no extension of time granted, however, as A “took no action whatsoever to contest 312-50 or even question her dismissal within the 21-day period or before she filed her application … Subjectively speaking, it is reasonable that Ms Schneider, having seen the email on 7 October 2014, only formed the view at that time that Apollo had filled her position rather than abolishing it and that her dismissal was therefore not a genuine redundancy and was unfair. Objectivelyhowever, this principal aspect of Ms Schneider’s case is without merit. It is clear that Apollo outsourced to an independent MA0-101 business in the Philippines the main functions of Ms Schneider’s former position.
