Is preliminary hearing notification via whatsapp legal?

In a recent court case, The labor court reprimanded an employer who notified an employee of a date set for a preliminary hearing prior to possible dismissal.

The court said “This is not another regular directive to an employee regarding his day to day job duties, but rather a possible life-altering event! As such, it should be handed to the employee in person (printed and signed letter), giving the employee a minimum amount of respect.

That said, the court did not find any other issues with the preliminary hearing process that was carried out properly and therefore did not award the employee any compensation for this misdemeanor.
