Labour law consultation for unfair practice case

  • Price estimate: R4500

I contacted the CCMA describing my situation, which they felt could be considered as Unfair Labour Practice. Here is a short description of the events that unfolded: A team meeting, including my boss, resulted in many of the team members airing concerns. These concerns were specifically on a lack of clarity and strategic guidance, but these I did not attribute solely to myself as project manager, as I had touched base with and worked with the team for many months, actively unpacking these areas. I had sought out the leadership for support, but unfortunately little concrete support or clarity was provided prior to this meeting held on 19 May. Following this meeting my boss shouted at me in a follow-up discussion, now including another manager, where I raised the support I requested earlier in the year. This was attributed as 'trying to blame her' and no further discussion on the topic allowed. We needed to focus our attention on a week long workshop we were hosting with 9 delegates from our African project cities. Following the successful hosting of the workshop (to great feedback from participants) I was removed as project manager with immediate effect by my boss during a follow-up meeting. This move was cited as necessary from the concerns raised by the team and I was told further engagements with some colleagues. Details of these discussions were not explained to me, nor was I offered any remedial action or potential performance management interventions to improve the situation. Instead I have now been asked to focus on fundraising activities solely, shifting my KPA's to that effect. All external facing engagements now exclude me as project manager, asked to only take notes of the meetings. Whilst my salary has not changed the current treatment I interpret as a demotion, but without the necessary evidence or explanation to warrant such a move. Furthermore, I feel ostracized from the team through these decisions and feel bullied by the leadership and their current derogatory comments. I also believe that they plan to give me unachievable targets, setting me up to fail to warrant a dismissal.
