SACCA's Zazi Nsibanyoni-Mugambi says they are shocked by the ruling.
"They dismissed the application based on the fact that the company has not served any employee with a section 189. notice formally, so they dismissed it on those grounds and we are absolutely shocked by this decision," said Mugambi.
