An unfair dismissal occurs if an employee has been made redundant due to unfair circumstances. These unfair circumstances vary depending on the job, the situation and why the dismissal occurred. Often an employee is dismissed unfairly and due to not being aware of legalities in the workplace they miss a severance package or chance to appeal.

In Victoria, employees of state government employers are not protected under the national Fair Work system, unless their employer has a registered agreement in the national system. This includes all employees in sectors providing essential services of core government functions, such as state infrastructure services. Employees not covered by the national system can pursue their industrial relations matter under their state system, which is Industrial Relations Victoria (IRV).
Conversely, all other Victorian employees are protected by the national system. A dismissed employee in Victoria that does not work for a State government entity can pursue an unfair dismissal claim in the Fair Work Commission.
