JUDICIAL MEASURES
369.
There have been a number of judicial decisions handed out by courts
relating to the right to work.
For instance in the case of John
Musengele Vs Zambian Airways Comp No. 76/2003, the
complainant brought an action against his former employers for wrongful
termination of employment by way of redundancy.
The Court relied on
Section 26 B (2) (a) and (b) of the Employment Amendment Act which
provides for the procedure that an employer is obliged to follow when
terminating a contract of employment for reasons of redundancy. The
Court further made reference to Clause 28 of the Collective Agreement in
force at the time that provided for the redundancy procedure.
After
considering the said provisions the Court held that the termination of the
complainant’s employment was unlawful because it was not done in
accordance with the law.
