An employee fired for eating two slices of carrot at Nando’s Scottsville must be reinstated the Durban Labour Court has ruled.The employee said he had tasted the carrots to check if they were still frozen.
During his disciplinary hearing in July 2018, and at a subsequent hearing at the Commission for Consolidation, Mediation and Arbitration , Ntokozo Gwala had insisted he was just “testing” the cooked carrots because they appeared to still be frozen.CCMA Commissioner Nicci Whitear-Nel found that this was substantively unfair, and ordered his reinstatement.
He was charged with gross misconduct: “unauthorised consumption of company stock”, a charge which, the company said, inherently involved dishonesty with the penalty being dismissal. However, in a previous case, managers, apparently confused over the company rules regarding the size of cooldrink they could have with their lunch, had not been disciplined or fired.
She said further that the “Grilled Roast Vegetable: procedure manual” was silent on whether the tasting of vegetables was prohibited or permitted.While Gwala had breached a workplace rule, he had not been dishonest.

NandosSA need to put Chakalaka Norris on the case.
Tricky situation indeed , assume I have 200 employees , one starts eating 2 slices.... now in time 200 employees will be consuming the carrot cake slices at some point I'm operating at a loss. However nandos did him wrong it should've been a verbal warning first
How many should you be allowed to eat, before it becomes an offense ?
Im actually very ok with that. Employee was CAUGHT eating 2 slices. What was it NOT caught eating?
unless you paid for the chicken, its going to bite you in the ass. its theft. its not yours to eat for free
I believe him when he said he did not know that it was a dismissable offence. Also, he did not know that it was an offence in the first place. He ate those carrot slices in front of a colleague. It was no theft or anything. He was just honestly working
Jirre. Imagine he chowed a portuguese roll - they would've asked for the flour back even...
Golden rule: Never consume your own merchandise... ✌️
Tjooo! 😳

Nando’s slams fake advert taking shots at Eskom CEO over load-sheddingNando's is known for its witty adverts that are relatable and often inspired by current affairs events, so it was no surprise that some on Twitter bought into the fake ad and even found it amusing. Good morning Kindly share my message if you can't assist. Can anyone please assist me with a food voucher so that I can buy some veggies to eat up until I receive my stipend. I'm currently a Bricklaying Apprentice busy with my practicals. Contact details 071 950 3434 Thanks Whoever wrote this trash has no understanding of wit. Did they really believe those with any degree of intelligence will see that d drivel scribed is not of the same standard as Nando's witty digs.Or perhaps d scribe is pitching this his/her specific,not so bright audience?
