GASORE N’ABANDI vs. MAGERWA Ltd

Court of Appeal
Case number
RS/INJUST/RSOC 00021/2022/CA

MAGERWA Ltd unlawfully dismissed the applicants by failing to provide the labour inspector with the required list of employees to be dismissed for economic reasons in advance, thereby denying the inspector the opportunity to review the process for legal compliance. This procedural failure rendered the dismissals unlawful, entitling the applicants to compensation as previously awarded by the lower court.

NYIRABWIZA v UNGUKA BANK Plc

Court
Court of Appeal
Case number
RS/INJUST/RSOC 00011/2022/CA

Nyirabwiza Justine was unlawfully dismissed because UNGUKA BANK Plc failed to notify the Labour Inspector of the list of employees to be dismissed for economic reasons prior to her dismissal, treating the notification as a mere formality contrary to the law. However, the Bank complied with the law by paying compensation in lieu of notice, so no additional compensation for notice is due. Damages for unlawful dismissal are to be calculated on the basis of net salary.
