Labour Court says it was not unfair for Technico Communications Limited not to continue a clerk’s employment

In 1989, the Labour Court said it did not find it unfair that Technico Communications Limited did not continue a credit control clerk’s employment while she was on probation. The recommendation was signed on 26 May 1989. Manufacturing Science And Finance had sought compensation, arguing that the worker had been unfairly dismissed after inadequate training and support. The company said she had struggled with key duties and had declined training in another area. The Court noted her probationary status and that the company was prepared to provide a reference.
