Labour law REVISION APPLICATIONI NO

REVISION APPLICATIONI NO

The applicant was denied the right to be heard before the CMA, rendering the proceedings and ruling a nullity.

The CMA erred in dismissing the application for condonation without properly considering these factors.

  • Condonation of delay
  • Right to be heard
  • Employment termination
  • Suspension pending criminal proceedings
