Man Fired for Peeping on Female Coworkers

The man, Moshe Bakang has now turned to the Johannesburg Labour Court in a bid to get his job back after being accused of peeping on female coworkers.

During CCMA proceedings, the commissioner ruled that the dismissal of Bakang was both procedurally and substantively fair – a ruling he now wanted overturned.

Bakang was employed as a sampler preparer by a mining company until his dismissal on a charge of misconduct.

The charge against him read: sexual harassment, non-verbal conduct such as unwelcome gestures, and indecent exposure towards a member of the opposite sex.

The victim, only identified as B, testified that she reported for duty on the night of November 4, 2019.

In the early hours of the next morning, she and her supervisor went to the ladies’ changing room to shower before knocking off.

It was shortly before five in the morning, and after showering, she stood in front of the mirror to apply lotion.

While busy applying lotion and half naked in her underwear, she could see through the mirror that the window behind her was slowly opening and a person was looking at her.

At this time, her supervisor was inside the toilet, and B called out to her.

She said at this stage, Bakang entered the changing room where she was still half naked.

B then said to Bakang that “you are so brave to enter the change house while you were staring at me through the window.”

B testified that Bakang came inside the changing room very relaxed and looked at her with his hand on his cheek.

She told him to leave and that she was going to report the matter.

She said that Bakang afterwards tried to call her numerous times, and she did not answer his WhatsApp calls.

She subsequently reported the matter to HR.
