aga khan education service tanzania vs joseph nicholaus achila 2024 tzhcld 18 4 march 2024

Court
TANZLII

The respondent's two-year fixed term contract was unfairly terminated both substantively and procedurally. The CMA F1 filed on 4th June 2021 was within the statutory time limit. Remedies for unfair termination apply to fixed term contracts exceeding six months. The arbitrator was correct to award compensation for the remaining period of the contract. No procedural injustice resulted from the presence of two CMA F1 forms.
