Summary at a glance

TypeUnfair and Unlawful TerminationPostureClaimant's Statement of Claim vs Respondent's Statement of ResponseCoramJames Rika
The Claimant's claim has no merit and is dismissed with no order on the costs.

Facts

The Claimant was employed as a P1 Teacher by the Respondent on February 10, 2011, with a starting basic salary of Kshs. 8,500 per month. He was granted sick leave for three days starting from June 30, 2011. He returned to work on July 4, 2011, but his contract was terminated by word of mouth. The Claimant sought compensation for salary underpayments, prorated annual leave, accrued housing allowance, and compensation for unfair termination.

Issues

  • Unfair and unlawful termination
  • Salary underpayments
  • Prorated annual leave
  • Accrued housing allowance
  • Compensation for unfair termination

Reasoning

The Court finds the Claimant initiated termination and is not entitled to notice pay and compensation. The Claimant did not make out a case for salary underpayments, and the claim for annual leave and housing allowance is unfounded.

Outcome

Dismissed with no order on the costs
