Respondent was employed by appellant as a bursar on a five-year fixed term contract that expired on 30 November 2008. After interviews for the bursar post in November 2009, respondent was unsuccessful and made a complaint of unfair labour practice which resulted in an arbitral award in his favour. Appellant's appeals were dismissed, and respondent sought quantification of the award. Appellant then filed applications for rescission of judgment and condonation.
