Facts of the Case
Background
The appellant, employed as a book-keeper, performed accounting duties when acting accountants left employment. He claimed entitlement to acting allowance and permanent appointment as accountant based on company policy. The matter went to arbitration where the arbitrator ruled against him, finding he was never appointed as acting accountant and the employer had elevated him to senior book-keeper instead.
