Woman unfairly dismissed after emailing male colleague 'you're pure evil' is awarded €37,500

The woman was sacked in July 2017 for gross misconduct after company investigators found that the content of the email to ‘Tony’ was very inappropriate, an attack on Tony’s character and “tantamount to bullying and harassment”.

The Workplace Relations Commission (WRC) has found that a female accountant was unfairly dismissed by a logistics firm here after she told a male colleague in an email that she thought he was "pure evil".

In the email sent in June 2017, the woman also told the man, referred to as ‘Tony’ (not his real name) that he was "shameless, arrogant and manipulative…” and that he was “not a healthy individual…”.
