</div>By his complaint dated, 3rd June 1999, Daniel Aborhey claimed the
following from the Italumex Ltd, the respondents:<o:p></o:p><ol style="margin-top:0in" start="1" type="1">
 <li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 5pt; text-align: justify; border: none;"><span style="font-size:
 12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:&quot;Book Antiqua&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;;mso-fareast-font-family:
 &quot;Book Antiqua&quot;;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Book Antiqua&quot;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; redeployment benefits<o:p></o:p></li>
 <li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 5pt; text-align: justify; border: none;"><span style="font-size:
 12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:&quot;Book Antiqua&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;;mso-fareast-font-family:
 &quot;Book Antiqua&quot;;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Book Antiqua&quot;">2 months salary
 arrears<o:p></o:p></li>
 <li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 5pt; text-align: justify; border: none;"><span style="font-size:
 12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:&quot;Book Antiqua&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;;mso-fareast-font-family:
 &quot;Book Antiqua&quot;;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Book Antiqua&quot;">payment of social
 security contribution arrears.<o:p></o:p></li>
</ol>The complainant alleged that he was employed as a
messenger/cleaner by the respondent on 1st November 1993. He remained in the
respondent's employment until 15th April 1998, when he was suspended for two
weeks and susbequently redeployed on 28th April 1998. The complainant further
alleged that the respondents owe him two months salary arrears and had not also
paid his social security contribution up to date.<o:p></o:p>On their part the respondent commented that the complainant had
been in their employment as alleged. He was laid off together with others
during the energy crisis. He was later on recalled to work. Due to his
indiscipline he was suspended after two weeks of recall. Upon resumption from
suspension, the complainant stormed angrily into the Managing Director's office
screaming and cursing. He then said that he was no longer interested in working
with the respondents again, and angrily walked away banging the door. The
respondents maintained that they did not dismiss the complainant. The
complainant rather walked out on them and never got back to work.<o:p></o:p>The Commission mediated the matter upon the consent of both
parties and the parties agreed on the following:-<o:p></o:p><ol style="margin-top:0in" start="1" type="1">
 <li class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; border: none;"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;
 font-family:&quot;Book Antiqua&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;;mso-fareast-font-family:&quot;Book Antiqua&quot;;
 mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Book Antiqua&quot;">The respondent to pay the complainant
 two months salary arrears.<o:p></o:p></li>
 <li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 5pt; text-align: justify; border: none;"><span style="font-size:
 12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:&quot;Book Antiqua&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;;mso-fareast-font-family:
 &quot;Book Antiqua&quot;;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Book Antiqua&quot;">&nbsp;The respondent to pay up the arrears of
 the complainant's social security contributions.<o:p></o:p></li>
</ol>Consequent to this agreement the complainant informed the
Commission that, the respondents had made good their promise and had paid him
two months salary agreed.<o:p></o:p>From the foregoing, the Commission decides that, the parties
herein have settled their differences amicably.<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>
