NKURUNZIZA v TECOS Ltd
The court held that failure to submit the discrimination claim to the labour inspector did not preclude judicial review since amicable procedures were followed. The applicant was not entitled to salary equalization with engineers due to differences in qualifications. Compensation for unfair dismissal was recalculated to nine months' salary due to over ten years' service, resulting in an additional award. Claims for vexatious litigation damages were rejected for lack of substantiation. Partial legal costs and attorney fees were awarded.
