Employment on superannuation terms did not, on the contractual construction in this case, confer an absolute security of tenure preventing termination by notice or wages in lieu; the defendant was entitled to rely on dismissal for cause based on proven dishonesty concerning TMA monitoring forms; disciplinary procedures were not a precondition to lawful dismissal; the civil standard of proof applies and the evidence was sufficient to establish dishonesty, therefore the appeal is dismissed.
