SONARWA LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY LTD v RUGINA
Rugina Jason was entitled to equal pay as other Branch Managers because he performed the same functions with equivalent qualifications and experience, and SONARWA failed to justify pay disparity. His wage claims were not prescribed as he made timely demands and referrals. Damages were properly calculated on net salary. SONARWA's procedural objections were untimely and could not be raised at this stage. SONARWA was not entitled to reimbursement of sums paid or costs, as it did not succeed on any substantive issue.
