Facts of the Case
Background
Applicant Lyton Shumba commenced employment with CBZ in April 1995, was unilaterally transferred to CBZ Nominees in August 1998, and was retrenched in August 2000. The court previously confirmed he remained a CBZ employee on secondment. He received a retrenchment package but now claims this did not waive his CBZ employment rights.
