Patchelicious Posted September 11, 2015 Posted September 11, 2015 Yoh, their employer turns a blind eye, but PPA suspended those cyclists.Wait WHAT? What PPA suspension is this?
Wannabe Posted September 11, 2015 Posted September 11, 2015 Yoh, their employer turns a blind eye, but PPA suspended those cyclists. HUH!!!Surely you jest....
Niner Posted September 11, 2015 Posted September 11, 2015 Wait WHAT? What PPA suspension is this?I mean their employer does nothing. But 2 years ago when cyclist hit the taxi driver they were suspended from riding the "argus" . So a club has more control over their members or an event over their participants and and employer over their staff

As should these Navy dudes.

webcast Posted September 11, 2015 Posted September 11, 2015 Ain't they supposed to protect the citizens of the country...Who's protecting who ?
Skubarra Posted September 11, 2015 Posted September 11, 2015 Those guys should be suspended. As should these Navy dudes. Patch - I'm no employment lawyer so I'm just trying to figure out how it work if you are accused of committing a crime when off duty? On what grounds would an employer suspend you before you are actually convicted of a crime. Say you are falsely accused of a crime (definitely not saying this is the case here), would it be fair for your employer to suspend you for something not work related and not yet proven in a court? Makes sense to me that the navy would wait for the outcome of the criminal case and not run some sort of parallel disciplinary case of their own.

So Is Es Posted September 11, 2015 Posted September 11, 2015 on KFM news they said that the navy will only follow up proceedings wants the court has finalised its decision, do not want to interfere with court proceedings.

Makes sense to me that the navy would wait for the outcome of the criminal case and not run some sort of parallel disciplinary case of their own. I think the nature of the job together with the nature of the charges would provide for sufficient grounds to question their ability to perform that job in the manner expected. There is also a serious chance of this affecting their employers reputation very seriously (in theory - assuming the SA armed forces had a good reputation).

This can be done when there could be further impact to the employer. Not sure how it would work in the military.
Joe Low Posted September 11, 2015 Posted September 11, 2015 Not sure why you quoting me? I was merely saying to Joe low to not downplay it as common assult I thought that was the charge
