Question:
Sasha was a bank employee with 21 years' service whose IT role entitled her to virtually unlimited access to confidential documents. One day, Sasha decided to access sensitive information concerning priority parking, without permission, to satisfy her curiosity about where she was on the list for the most prized parking spots. As soon as the employer found out about this action, it dismissed Sasha for just cause. Sasha sued the employer for wrongful dismissal, arguing that as a long-service employee with an unblemished work record, dismissing her for just cause for a single, isolated act was a disproportionate response.
Question -
Did the employer have just cause in your view? (100-120 words)
