AI summary
The Labour Court dealt with claims by the South African Equity Workers Association and individual applicants against Titancor Sixteen (Pty) Ltd. It granted an amendment to the pleadings, then found that the dismissals of the second to the ninth applicants were invalid and null and void, and that certain underpayments under Sectoral Determination No 9 had to be paid with interest.
This appears to concern retrenchment consultation, procedural fairness and wage underpayment issues in the wholesale and retail sector.
Evidence from source
the dismissal of the second to the ninth applicants should be declared invalid for being in breach of the provisions of s 189A of the LRA.
