The Labour Court refused Erico Luiz De Souza an extension to appeal a WRC Payment of Wages decision against Seanita Ltd, finding it had no jurisdiction to hear the substantive appeal. The decision was signed on 28 April 2026. De Souza said fear of retaliation, losing contact with his WRC representative and personal circumstances explained the delay. Seanita Ltd argued there was no evidence of exceptional circumstances preventing a timely appeal. The Court found the explanations insufficient; it did not decide whether the wage complaint was well founded.
