BCL – May 2016 – L1 – Q6 – Employment Law

Evaluate the justification for terminating an employee’s appointment, potential legal redress, and the difference between dismissal and termination.

Kojo Mensah was employed by A&B Co. Ltd as a Waste Management technician. Before his employment, Kojo Mensah presented a certificate to evidence the fact that he was very qualified for the job as a Waste Management technician. One and a half years into his employment, Kojo Mensah’s subordinates petitioned the Management of A&B Co. Ltd that Kojo Mensah was not exhibiting a high sense of professionalism in his position as a Waste Management technician, as several complaints were coming from the clients of A&B Co Ltd to the effect that the services being rendered by the Company were unsatisfactory, adding that Kojo Mensah, as the Officer in charge of that unit, could not supervise the operations of the said unit. It later came to light after the company conducted further due diligence on Kojo Mensah’s academic and professional background, that the certificate he submitted for his employment was a forged one. Prior to the submission of the Petition against him, Kojo Mensah had on several occasions been queried by Management for abandoning his duty post and also getting very drunk during working hours. Without giving Kojo Mensah an opportunity to respond to the petition, the Management of A&B Co. Ltd did not dismiss Kojo Mensah but terminated his appointment from the Company on these grounds.
