Piet is amongst fifty-one employees of Half-Suiker Sak (Pty) Ltd (HSS). He is a
manager in his division but reports to Ms Mondays, the Gauteng provincial
manager, with whom he had a romantic relationship. Piet lost interest in
their affair in March 2025 on the arrival of Ms Vitamin, a newly appointed
clerk, with whom he engaged in a romantic relationship. By September 2025
already, Ms Vitamin’s absenteeism records indicated that she had been
absent from work for sixty days. Upon investigation, Ms Mondays established
that Ms Vitamin exhausted all her leave days for the year. Further, that she
submitted three handwritten and signed letters from Gogo M’lungisi, a
registered traditional healer, which indicated that Ms Vitamin was her patient
for all the days she had been absent. One of the letters indicated that Ms
Vitamin requested an extended unpaid leave so that she can answer ‘her
calling to become a sangoma’ which Piet, her manager approved. In
December 2025, Ms Mondays charged Ms Vitamin on a count of misconduct
in relation to her absence from work for days in question. Ms Mondays is of
the view that the letters are invalid and unlawful because Gogo M’lungisi is
not eligible to issue doctor’s’ letters/notes for the purposes of section 23 of
the Basic Conditions of Employment Act, 1997. With reference to applicable
legal authority, advise both Ms Vitamin and HSS on the position of the law in
South Africa on the validity and lawfulness of the letters issued by Gogo
M’lungisi.
1. Legal Issue
The central issue is whether the handwritten and signed letters issued by Gogo M’lungisi, a
registered traditional healer, qualify as valid medical certificates for purposes of section 23 of
the Basic Conditions of Employment Act 75 of 1997 (BCEA).
If the letters are valid:
Ms Vitamin’s absence may be legally justified.
