Facts of the Case
Background
The applicant employee sought condonation for late noting of an appeal against a disciplinary decision. The respondent employer raised points in limine arguing the condonation application was premature as it related to a Works Council decision that had been given on 15 October 2020, and the condonation application filed on 13 October 2021 was therefore premature. The applicant contended the condonation related to a Head of Department decision, not the Works Council decision.
