A fashion buyer who felt she was “treated like a criminal” when she was sacked while waiting for her work visa to be renewed has won €25,000 for unfair dismissal.
“I was in tears, crying non-stop. I told him my visa’s going to be renewed in three days, they can’t do it to me, it’s wrong. He said no, that’s your letter of termination,” the worker, Poliane Fernandes Lima, told the Workplace Relations Commission (WRC) earlier this year.
