abc.net.au/news/monique-ryan-sally-rugg-federal-court-injunction/101910838A staffer of federal MP Monique Ryan is claiming in court documents she was sacked after she complained of working "unreasonable" hours.
The Commonwealth is Ms Rugg's official employer, but court documents lodged by her legal team allege that Dr Ryan was the "principal actor" on behalf of the Commonwealth in this dispute. She wants the court to rule that her complaint led to "adverse action" being taken against her by the Commonwealth, "being to injure the applicant in her employment by engaging in hostile conduct in the workplace".The documents, filed in the court's Melbourne registry, say Ms Rugg's sacking was due to come into effect on January 31, and state she is seeking an injunction to stop that from happening until the court case is finalised.
