Background
The appellant voluntarily retrenched in 2010 and received her package. Two years later she complained of discrepancies and unfair labour practice, alleging the company could afford salary increases and had discriminated against her. The arbitrator dismissed her claims. She appealed on grounds including lack of good faith, discrimination, and pension contributions.
