Missed opportunities: The implications of squandering a disciplinary hearing

In employer-employee workplace tales, a person decrying unfair termination is a common scenario. But what about the instances where the employee had a chance to tell their side of the story in a disciplinary hearing, but they let it slip away? This is the story in the case of Okun v Kenyatta University (Cause 363 of 2019) where the employee sought a declaration from the court that his employment was terminated unfairly. The twist is that the employer had extended two invitations to the employee to appear before a disciplinary committee, which were postponed at the request of the employee. Thereafter, it sent a third invitation which the employee refused to honour entirely. What is the implication of squandering the termination process in thisway?

Rate changes and the fuel sector

With effect from 2023 and following a lengthy public consultation process, the Carbon Tax Act was amended to state the exact annual carbon tax rate increases from 2023 to 2030. One of the reasons for this was to promote certainty from an investment perspective and to enable South Africa to meet its Paris Agreement commitments by gradually increasing the carbon tax rate. It therefore comes as no surprise that in the Budget it was confirmed that the carbon tax increased from R159 to R190 per tonne CO2 equivalent from 1 January 2024. Concomitantly, it was announced that the carbon fuel levy will increase to 11c/litre for petrol and 14c/litre for diesel effective from 3 April 2024.
