MRL3702 ASSIGNMENT 02/2026 ASSIGNMENT 02: SEMESTER 1 ASSIGNMENT QUESTION Piet is amongst fifty-one employees of Half-Suiker Sak (Pty) Ltd (HSS). He is a manager in his division but reports to Ms Mondays, the Gauteng provincial manager, with whom he had a romantic relationship. Piet lost interest in their affair in March 2025 on the arrival of Ms Vitamin, a newly appointed clerk, with whom he engaged in a romantic relationship. By September 2025 already, Ms Vitamin’s absenteeism records indicated that she had been absent from work for sixty days. Upon investigation, Ms Mondays established that Ms Vitamin exhausted all her leave days for the year. Further, that she submitted three handwritten and signed letters from Gogo M’lungisi, a registered traditional healer, which indicated that Ms Vitamin was her patient for all the days she had been absent. One of the letters indicated that Ms Vitamin requested an extended unpaid leave so that she can answer ‘her calling to become a sangoma’ which Piet, her manager approved. In December 2025, Ms Mondays charged Ms Vitamin on a count of misconduct in relation to her absence from work for days in question. Ms Mondays is of the view that the letters are invalid and unlawful because Gogo M’lungisi is not eligible to issue doctor’s’ letters/notes for the purposes of section 23 of the Basic Conditions of Employment Act, 1997. With reference to applicable legal authority, advise both Ms Vitamin and HSS on the position of the law in South Africa on the validity and lawfulness of the letters issued by Gogo M’lungisi.
