The court found that the 1st Respondent had reasonable grounds to terminate the Claimant's employment due to his failure to account for Ksh. 43,642.00 in sales proceeds, satisfying the substantive justification required under section 43(2) of the Employment Act. However, the 1st Respondent failed to fully comply with procedural requirements, specifically by not affording the Claimant the opportunity to call witnesses during the disciplinary process, constituting a procedural flaw. The claims for defamation, false imprisonment, and workplace injury were dismissed for lack of evidence. The court held that the 1st Respondent made irregular deductions from the Claimant's salary without lawful basis or consent, entitling the Claimant to reimbursement. The court also determined it lacked jurisdiction over the claim against the 2nd Respondent, as no employment relationship existed. Consequently, the Claimant was awarded one month's salary for procedural unfairness and reimbursement of irregular deductions, with interest and half costs against the 1st Respondent. The suit against the 2nd Respondent was dismissed with costs.
