Summary at a glance

TypeUnfair TerminationPostureRespondent's case admitted; Claimant's case deniedCoramJK GAKERI, Maraga, W. Karanja
The court finds the termination of the Claimant’s employment on account of redundancy to be fair.

Facts

Victor Nyangorora was employed as a Warehouse Manager and later promoted to Deputy-Research and Business Development Manager. He was terminated on account of redundancy in February 2016, despite the Respondent retaining the same roles and employing other individuals.

Issues

  • Whether termination of the Claimant’s employment on account of redundancy was fair.
  • Whether the Claimant is entitled to the reliefs sought.

Reasoning

The court acknowledges the Claimant's allegations but finds insufficient evidence to support them. The Respondent's case is admitted, and the court upholds the termination as necessary due to the need for organizational restructuring.

Outcome

The court dismisses the claim.
