Stop it! Please leave me alone, Mr Mayi!! I do not like what you are doing to me. It’s unethical therefore stop it!!
Hey Nosie, you are so sexy today in that tight dress. That dress reveals all those thighs and those curves. I can`t wait to taste them because you `re mine now and don`t you dare tell anyone about us.
Mr Rooi, would you please allow me to briefly explain to you why there was an altercation between me and Mr Mayi yesterday morning because Ihave a valid reason.
No! I won`t listen to your silly excuses. You know very wellthat one should not physically hit any staff here at work. You know that I donot tolerate violence actions here so you are deliberately breaking my rulesand it is worse when an ordinary employee physically hit one of my managers atmy workplace. You are being dismissed and get the hell out of my office now!!
Mr Rooi did not even give me an opportunity to explain why Ipushed Mr Mayi yesterday and it was not my intention to bruise his face.Therefore this means Mr Rooi does not know that Mr Mayi was trying to kiss meby force and I was dismissed
This is totally unfair!! You cannot be dismissed because Mr Mayi was sexually harassing you and he has no right to touch you inappropriately even if he has.You also have rights as an employee
I think you should contact Mrs Maqanda, our elected shop steward she is the one that should be able to assist you with this problem and also remember that you are also part of the trade union.
Description – In this scenario, Nosipho feels that her rights are violated by her manager in the workplace. He occasionally touches her inappropriately and that makes her uncomfortable and unsafe. Nosipho got frustrated because and pushed Mr Mayi away from her when he was trying to kiss her by force and therefore fell and he got a small bruise on his face.
Good Morning Mrs Mqanda, I was recommended to you by one of my employees that you will be able to assist me with a grievance in my workplace.
Good Morning to you Nosipho, of course I will be able toassist you. So please can briefly explain to me what really happened you then Iwill take it from there.
Description – In this scene, Nosipho is informed by her bossthat she is dismissed due to the altercation she believes she had with Mr Mayiwhich is an admin manager. Her boss did not give her a chance to explain theincident. Employees are often mistreated and sexuallyabused by their bosses and this causes workplace issues.
You are not supposed to be here at work today!! You are dismissed and you know that.
I am not going anywhere and I work here. In this office Idid not come to see you. I came to speak to with Mrs Rooi.
Hey stop it you too!! This is my office no more shouting. I will contact the shop steward to handle this matter
In this scene, Nosipho`s colleague reminded her that she ispart of the trade union therefore she recommend that she must contact Mrs Maqanda, the elected shop steward to get the problem sorted. Trade union is an organization that protects employee’s rights in the workplace and ensures fair treatment.
We are here today to address the serious issue of an unfair dismissal along the workplace and finally sexual harassment in the workplace
In this scene, Nosipho explains to Mrs Maqanda what happened that day with Mr Mayi. Mrs Maqanda the shop stewards then informs Nosipho that she will look into the situation and informs Nosipho that she must speak with her boss regards to this situations and get back to her.
An issue similar to this one often happens in the workplace where people in power abuses the rights of employees and this goes unnoticed by management or the bosses. Shop stewards are the one made to handle matters like these.
The shop steward set a meeting with the boss and the manager as wells as the employee that had an altercation. The shop stewards acts as a mediator between the people in the workplace
