The Socio-Economic Rights Institute of South Africa Seri has approached the Labour Appeal Court to contest the dismissal of a man who was fired for calling his manager a white racist.
According to Seri, the dismissal of Vuyani Qomoyi, who was employed as a general worker at Namaqua Wines since 2019, infringes the rights of freedom of expression.
Seri is representing Qomoyi and the Commercial, Stevedoring, Agricultural and Allied Workers Union CSAAWU.
