TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT – extension of time – s.394, 400, 604 Fair Work Act 2009 – permission to appeal – Full Bench – application for extension of time dismissed at first instance – applicant appealed on grounds she was not advised of when dismissal occurred and that evidence before Commission at first instance was inaccurate – Full Bench referred matter for hearing or conference due to dispute on effective date of dismissal [[2016] FWCFB 2076] – hearing conducted and report made to Full Bench – Full Bench not satisfied Commission erred in relation to date employment ended and from which 21 days calculated – not satisfied Commission erred in finding that criterion in s.394(3)(b) of FW Act weighed against a finding of exceptional circumstances – not satisfied Commission erred in conclusion on merits of application – no other errors identified in appeal – Full Bench accepted that the Commission not conducting a hearing, despite the disputed date of dismissal, would normally be a sufficient reason to grant permission to appeal – having conducted a hearing in relation to disputed facts and considering the evidence, the Full Bench did not consider it in the public interest to grant permission to appeal – apart from error corrected on appeal, decision turned on its own facts and raised no broader issue of law or policy – permission to appeal refused.
