Questão jurídica principal
Whether the summary dismissal for repeated conflict-of-interest conduct was lawful
Decisão extraída
The dismissal was lawful because the employee repeatedly and secretly acted in a prohibited dual role, seriously breaching duties and destroying trust.
Fundamentação extraída
Absolute avoidance of conflicts of interest in public procurement justified the employer's loss of trust; the conduct was grossly improper regardless of financial loss or the size of the contracts.
