Question:
Mr. Petrus Molefi, the senior shop steward at CC Plastics, was found in possession of stolen items. He argued that he was simply holding the items for another employee, Mr. Simon Tshitsi. He further acknowledged that he was not aware it was stolen at the time since Mr. Tshitsi had given him a receipt showing that the material had been purchased from CC Plastics. Mr. Tshitsi displayed the receipt that appears to be from CC Plastics as proof. 10 questions that you will ask Mr. Petrus Molefi during cross-examination to verify his version of events are being prepared by the employer representative.
(a) View the various facts that have emerged during the case study; also read through the mitigating and aggravating factors you have submitted. Weigh the evidence up and
decide on a sanction for Mr. Petrus Molefi. Formulate your decision and write a report on the reasoning behind your decision and sanction. You should substantiate the decision and sanction clearly in terms that will be easily understood by both the employer representative and Mr. Petrus Molefi and his Union representative.
(b) As Mr. Molefi’s representative, formulate a letter to the employer requesting additional information about the disciplinary hearing, charges against Mr. Molefi, evidence and witnesses’ information.
