Kedwell v Coal & Allied Mining Services Pty Limited [2016] FWC 6018

(#P55_4031) Shepherd v Felt & Textiles of Australia Ltd [1931] HCA 21; (1931) 45 CLR 359 at 373, 377-8.

Fair Work Commission|2016-09-09|Before: Commissioner Saunders

(#P24_403) I have deliberately not included in this decision the name of the employee bullied at work because (a) there is no dispute about the identity of the employee or the fact that he was bullied at work, (b) the employee was compelled to give evidence in these proceedings by reason of an order from the Commission, (c) the employee has suffered enough already, and (d) I am concerned that publishing a decision in which the employee is identified by his name will increase the risk of future bullying against him, either in or outside the workplace.
