That sounds familiar - must be the same company!

There are a lot of sharks in the fishbowl lately... It is one thing not to give a person a contract it is something entirely different to expect a person just to stand up and walk without any compensation after 6 month of working late giving their 110%

Still it would be interesting to see the options this employee has to her/his disposal.

Hi tec0,

I would assume you have to be employed, or at least deemed to be employed, in order to be fired.

What type of tax was paid?

I'm no expert in this - However, I do know that one cannot be a contract / temporary worker forever without being automatically deemed as an employee in the eyes of the law. With or without an empolyment contract - one's rights are protected. The Basic conditions of employment act is not too difficult for the layman to understand (i should know!) - sifting though that would be a good starting point.
