What Can I Do If I Have Been Unfairly Dismissed?

If you believe you’ve been subjected to an unfair dismissal, it’s essential to first utilise any available internal grievance mechanisms within your company. Should these options be exhausted or unavailable, you have the right to escalate the matter by involving the Commission for Conciliation, Mediation, and Arbitration (CCMA) or a relevant bargaining council. This must be done within 30 days from the date of your dismissal or from the final decision regarding your appeal against the dismissal.

Should you find that the nature of your dismissal contravenes Section 187 or any other provisions of the Labour Relations Act, it is strongly recommended to seek legal advice on dismissal.
