</div>INTRODUCTION <o:p></o:p>In
a complaint received on 21ST May 2004, the Complainant alleged that the current
management of the Respondent had wrongfully dismissed him. According to the
Complainant the Respondent under took a renovation exercised after which all
the employees were asked to re-apply for reinstatement at their head office.
Complainant further alleged that he was recommended by one Mr. Banor at the
head office to be reinstated under the new management, which was headed by Mr.
Robert Taylor. The Complainant also alleged that Mr. Amaniapong, the one who
took over from Mr. Robert Taylor, on Monday 5th January 2004 instructed that
they hand over all their working materials to their supervisor and thereby
consider themselves dismissed. The Complainant therefore petitioned the
Commission to seek redress for reasonable compensation from Respondent to cure
his heart disease, which he developed due to the unexpected dismissal.<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>OBSERVATION<o:p></o:p>The
Commission observes that this is a labour related issue involving a private organization.<o:p></o:p>The
Complainant is therefore advised to pursue his case at the Labour Department or
the Trade Union Congress (TUC).<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>DECISION<o:p></o:p>Further
