Charleroi ‌Industrial⁢ Company Faces Scrutiny in Unfair Dismissal Case

A former manager,Béatrice,is pursuing legal action against a large industrial company ‍in​ Charleroi,Belgium,alleging unfair dismissal. The case centers around inconsistencies ‍in performance evaluations and⁤ the company’s inability too produce positive reviews that reportedly existed.

Key Details of the Case

Béatrice worked for the Carolo industrial⁢ company from 2016 to 2023, receiving two promotions and corresponding salary increases during her tenure. Her dismissal was ‍justified by the company‍ as being due to “skills unsuitable for the position performed.”

The core of the dispute lies in the performance evaluations ⁤Béatrice received. While acknowledging some less-than-perfect evaluations in‍ 2019-2020 and 2020-2021, her lawyer argues these were flawed due to being conducted⁤ by individuals not directly supervising her and lacking subsequent remediation plans.

crucially, the lawyer contends that positive evaluations followed these initial reports,⁢ but Béatrice ⁢did not retain copies, anticipating no need. ‌ The company now claims it cannot locate these positive⁣ evaluations, a point the ⁣judge found questionable.

The Missing Evaluations

The judge directly questioned‌ the company’s lawyer regarding the missing evaluations, asking, “Why are these ratings no longer available?” The response, “I don’t know… Maybe a computer problem,” was deemed unconvincing.

Recent ⁢Praise Contradicts Dismissal Reason

Adding to the complexity, Béatrice received congratulations shortly before her dismissal, seemingly contradicting the stated reason of inadequate skills.This timing raises further doubts about the legitimacy‌ of ⁢the dismissal.
