IMHO it would be a brave manager who would stand up before FWA and "complain" that an employee followed the companies procedures !!
"Yes, your Honour, we do allege that this employee was taking "unprotected" industrial action.........
"And what was this employee doing"
"Your Honour, he was following our written procedures"
"And do you have a policy about your policies"
"Yes your Honour, we require that ALL of our employees follow ALL of our procedures ALL of the time"
"And are your employees aware of the requirement to follow procedures ?"
"Yes your Honour, we frequently have "read & signs" reminding them of this, we have posters up everywhere and it is one of our "Cardinal Rules" "
"So.....Let me understand this.........You have policies, you require that your employees follow these policies, you enforce these policies and you actively promote adherence to these policies ?
"Yes your Honour, now please find this employee "guilty" of "Following procedures"
"Are you sh!tt!ing me ?"
