Facts of the Case
Background
The appellant employee was sent to bank R32,000 for his employer but the bank teller mistakenly returned R10,000 to him while recording the full amount as deposited. The appellant kept the money in his office drawer without reporting the error. When the bank discovered the mistake the same day, it recovered the money from the appellant. The employer conducted a disciplinary hearing, found him guilty of theft, and dismissed him. The arbitrator upheld the dismissal.
