Facts of the Case
Background
The 1st to 10th respondents were employees of the applicant who opted for voluntary retrenchment in 2015. They received retrenchment packages but later claimed unlawful termination, arguing the packages violated statutory provisions. An arbitrator found lawful termination, but the Labour Court overturned this, finding unlawful termination. The applicant now seeks leave to appeal to the Supreme Court.
