Of course you can have your job back.

My head exploded after reading this.

Basically, an idiot worker was told four times in one morning to wear safety goggles while working in a hazardous environment. He told the management to fuck off and worry about something else.

He was sacked.

A tribunal ruled that because
- He was poorly educated
- He had poor job prospects
- He had a dependent family
- He had a mortgage
then he should get his job back.

I can't get my head around this. Because the person you sack for safety violations can't get a job elsewhere, you are obliged to give him back his job and pay him compensation.

Perhaps this (or at least some part of the discussion) will belong in fratching, but I simply can't understand the thought processes involved in this decision.

If you have to say it, then rather take it there in the first place.
