Genuine redundancy is not considered unfair dismissal. A genuine redundancy is when:

  • the person's job doesn't need to be done by anyone
  • the employer followed any consultation requirements in the award or enterprise agreement
  • there was no reasonable opportunity for the person to be redeployed within the employer's business or an associated business. When an employee's dismissal is a genuine redundancy, the employee can't make an unfair dismissal claim.
