Mmakau v Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration and Others
(JR2733/2021) [2026] ZALCJHB 14 (23 January 2026)
Summary of facts (2)
Justice Mmakau was employed by Mantis Security (Pty) Ltd as a security guard and
was stationed at one of the employer's client sites where his duties required regular
interaction with members of the public. Mr Mmakau has a speech disability in that he
stutters. He alleged that his employer transferred him from the public-facing position
to another location solely because of his disability. Dissatisfied with this decision, he
referred an unfair discrimination dispute to the CCMA in terms of the Employment
Equity Act 55 of 1998 (EEA). During the arbitration, the commissioner found that Mr
Mmakau had failed to prove that the transfer was motivated by his disability and
dismissed the claim. Mr Mmakau subsequently approached the Labour Court to
review and set aside the arbitration award, arguing that the commissioner had failed
to properly evaluate the evidence presented.¹
