Mashamplani's dismissal appears to be unfair and discriminatory, violating several
provisions of the South African Constitution, the Employment Equity Act (EEA), the Labour
Relations Act (LRA) and various precedential case law.
Constitution: Section 9(3) of the Constitution prohibits unfair discrimination on various
grounds, including sexual orientation and pregnancy. Mashamplani's sexual orientation as a
gay woman is protected under this provision. Moreover, her dismissal due to pregnancy
could potentially amount to discrimination based on gender.
