Labour Court finds Campbell Catering chef was not unfairly dismissed

In 1988, the Labour Court found that a chef was not unfairly dismissed by Campbell Catering Limited, concluding that his job ended as part of a reorganisation to cut costs. The recommendation was signed on 12 January 1988. The worker said the company wanted to replace him with a lower-paid chef and should have offered him work at another unit. Campbell Catering said it had cut six jobs at the Spawell unit because of low business and margins, and that the worker had not been replaced. The Court noted that his services had been satisfactory and the company would consider a future application.
