Holding

The suit is dismissed as the respondent waived his rights to make any further claims in relation to his relationship with the appellant.

Facts

The Claimant, Haron Oketch Rapemo, was employed by the East African Community and later transferred to the East African Trypanosomiasis Research Organisation, then to the Kenya Industrial Research and Development Institute (KIRDI). He was retired on October 31, 2000, and sought his full pension and other benefits.

Issues

  1. Whether the Claimant can recover his pension and other benefits after waiving his rights through a discharge agreement
  2. Whether the Employment & Labour Relations Court has jurisdiction to hear the case

Reasoning

The respondent waived his rights to make any further claims, and the Claimant signed a discharge agreement absolving the 3rd Respondent of any claims he could have.

Outcome

Dismissed
