Any person determining whether a dismissal for poor work performance is unfair should consider—

 

(a) whether or not the employee failed to meet a performance standard; and

 

(b) If the employee did not meet a required performance standard whether or not—
(i) the employee was aware, or could reasonably be expected to have been aware, of the required performance standard;
(ii) the employee was given a fair opportunity to meet the required performance standard; and
(iii) dismissal was an appropriate sanction for not meeting the required performance standard.
