A Feilding kennel worker sacked for bagging her boss on the radio has been ordered to pay her former employer $4000 after losing her Employment Relations Authority hearing.
Sandra Wilson gave a radio interview on More FM in March 2011 about how much she hated working at Pet Stay, a boarding kennel for cats and dogs, and how unhappy she was with the company's management.
She did not mention the company by name, but a client of the kennel's director heard the interview and was able to identify the company.
Wilson was sacked in April 2011.
The award of costs comes after she lost a personal grievance case, claiming she had been unjustifiably disadvantaged and dismissed.
