winfred ngitu vs kimani minerals ltd 2023 tzhcld 1330 16 june 2023

Court
TANZLII

The termination of the Applicant was substantively fair due to absenteeism without permission, but procedurally unfair as the Applicant was not properly notified of the consequences of nonappearance at the disciplinary hearing and was denied the right to be heard. Compensation is limited to six months' salary due to procedural unfairness only.

Court
TANZLII

The court held that the applicant fulfilled its obligation by paying the respondent the exact amount agreed in the settlement agreement, regardless of the terminology used in the pay slip. The respondent was not entitled to further payment, and the CMA's order for additional payment was set aside. The respondent was also not entitled to repatriation expenses due to his own delay in clearance.

Court
TZHC

The applicant failed to provide cogent evidence of operational requirements justifying termination, did not follow mandatory consultation and selection procedures, and did not prove that an alternative job was offered to the respondent. The respondent was entitled to compensation for unfair termination, severance pay recalculated as per statute, and repatriation allowance. The compensation was reduced from 48 months to 24 months' salary due to the court's discretion and consideration of economic circumstances.

CIVIL APPEAL NO 443 OF 2021 UNIVERSITY OF DAR ES SALAAM VS JEROME TESHA

Court
TANZLII

The respondent's claim for subsistence allowance was not time-barred as it was a continuation of the original dispute, and the employer's failure to pay repatriation allowance upon termination triggered the statutory obligation to pay subsistence allowance for the period between termination and actual repatriation. The absence of procedural letters did not affect the validity of the appeal as all substantive requirements were met.

  • Subsistence allowance
  • Repatriation allowance
  • Time limitation
