Facts of the Case
Background
The appellant filed an appeal against a draft ruling by Labour Officer Madziya J dated 29 March 2023. The appeal was filed on 7 September 2023 under section 128(1) of the Labour Act as amended, but incorrectly referred to appealing against a "draft ruling" rather than the "judgement" or "ruling" that the transitional provisions had transformed it into by operation of law.
