Facts of the Case
Background
The applicant, who was employed by the 2nd respondent, was dismissed for habitual and substantial neglect of duties. After unsuccessful internal appeals, the matter was referred to a Labour Officer who issued a draft ruling upholding the dismissal on 20 August 2018. The applicant waited for confirmation proceedings that never materialized and only filed an application for condonation for late review on 23 March 2020, approximately 19 months later.
