Grobler
v Naspers Bpk and Another [2004]5 BLLR 455(C)
Ms Grobler was the unwilling target of
repeated sexual advances by a trainee manager in the
department where she worked as a secretary for a number of
months. When he was finally told where to get off, the trainee
manager drew a firearm and threatened Ms Grobler. Before this,
she had complained a number of times to the department’s
manager, to no avail. When she finally approached the
company’s HR department, the harasser was dismissed. This
was too late. By that time, Ms Grobler was suffering form
post-traumatic stress. After she resigned, Ms Grobbler sued
Naspers and its former trainee manager jointly for R250 000 in
general damages, plus medical costs and compensation for loss
of income. Both the manager and Naspers denied that Ms Grobler
had been harassed ; Naspers pleaded in the alternative
that even if she had been harassed, it was not liable

Wardlaw
v Supreme Mouldings (Pty) Ltd [2004]6 BLLR 613(LC)
When she returned to work after maternity
leave, Ms Wardlaw received a notice to attend a disciplinary
inquiry. She was found guilty of failing to discharge her
duties as group financial manager because she had performed
various accounting tasks in a grossy negligent manner, which
resulted in considerable loss to her employer, as well as tax
penalties and interest. Ms Wardlaw was summarily dismissed.
She referred the matter to the Labour Court, claiming that she
was dismissed for reasons that related to the taking of
maternity leave or, alternatively, that even if she had been
negligent, her dismissal was unfair because she had not been
correctively disciplined. She claimed compensation equivalent
to 24 months’ salary |

Le
Roux v Afribind CC [2004[4 BALR 469(CCMA)
Whether the minority member of a closed
corporation is an employee as defined in the LRA was the main
issue. After the termination of Mr Le Roux’s relationship
with Afribind CC, he referred a dispute to the CCMA, claiming
that he had been unfairly dismissed. Afribind contended that
Le Roux was not its employee, and that, if he was, there were
good reasons for the termination of relationship and the
termination was procedurally fair |

What do parties have to prove if they
want the Labour Court to close down a bargaining council? Two
employers’ organisations who were reluctant parties to the
respondent council argued, inter alia, that the council was not functioning
properly |

on behalf of Prins v Woodline Timbers [2004]4 BALR 431(CCMA)
Mr Prins, a boiler operator, was
dismissed for assaulting one of his managers. He denied that
he had done anything of the sort, and claimed in the CCMA that
the employer had acted inconsistently by dismissing him |

Khula
Enterprise Finance Limited v Madinane and others [204[4 BLLR
366
When Khula Enterprise Management was
restructured, one of its top mangers was required to report to
a newly appointed general manager, rather than to the managing
director, as he had done before. The manager took exception to
the new setup, and arguments followed. The manager was warned,
but the situation eventually deteriorated to the point where
he was dismissed for insubordination and gross negligence. A
CCMA commissioner held that the dismissal was procedurally
unfair because the disciplinary hearing had been presided over
by a practising advocate, rather than an employee, and because
the advocate had been briefed by the company’ attorneys |

SAPU
v SA Police Service and others [2004]6 BLLR 567(LC)
The 'right sizing' and transformation
of the public service has led to a sizeable number of disputes
being referred to the Public Service Co-ordinating Bargaining
Council. Most of these complaints concern transfers to places
considered unacceptable by the transferee. The council assumed
jurisdiction to decide these disputes in terms of its own
Resolution 7 of 2002, which governed the 'matching and
placement' process in terms of which employees were
promoted, redeployed or transferred in the process of
transformation |

on behalf of Abrahams v Guestro Wheels [2004[4 BALR 520(CCMA)
Mr Abrahams, a despatch clerk, was

rims to an 'undercover agent' and receiving money from the
agent in return. Abrahams denied that he had been involved in
any corruption. The agent gave evidence at Abrahams'
disciplinary hearing |

v African Defence Systems (Pty) Ltd [2004]4 BALR 413(CCMA)
After African Defence System (Pty)

indicated that it was considering relocating its operations in
Natal and the Cape to its head office in Midrand, one of its
senior employees, Mr Barry, reluctantly indicated that he was
only prepared to accept relocation subject to certain
conditions, which were not accepted to management |

Tither
v Trident Steel [2004]4 BALR 404(MEIBC)
Ms Tither, a telesales assistant at
Trident Steel, was dismissed after she developed neck pains as
a result of working at her computer. After many absences from
work, medical boarding was considered, but the company’s
pension fund ruled that Ms Tither did not qualify. She claimed
that her dismissal was unfair because the company had not
tried enough to find her alternative employment. Trident Steel
claimed that it had made every reasonable effort to
accommodate Ms Tither, and that she was unable to fulfil her
contractual duties |
