The High Court affirmed the Labour Court's factual finding that the respondent did not consent to the salary deduction because the alleged acceptance document was rejected as not genuine and the respondent's unchallenged evidence showed no agreement or condonation; absent consent and contemporaneous proof of financial necessity the unilateral deduction breached the employment contract, entitling the respondent to arrears; appellate interference was unwarranted as there was no misdirection in the Labour Court's evaluation of evidence.
