LABOUR LAW
What are the most common reasons for dismissal of an employee from employment in Zimbabwe?
The most common reasons for dismissal of employees from employment in Zimbabwe are misconduct, inability to do the job and redundancy. The Supreme Court of Zimbabwe in Mutasa v ZESA Enterprises (Pvt) Ltd SC 88-24 held that:
“Generally speaking, dismissal means that an employer has terminated a contract of employment with or without notice. The most common reasons for dismissal are misconduct, inability to do the job and redundancy. Retrenchment can therefore be classified as a form of dismissal from employment with notice at the behest of the employer.”
