I write on behalf of an NGO which is dependent on donor funding. We employed some community people for 9 months. They worked for 4 months already but their contract ends Feb 2015. We were told that for some reason the funding will be stopped coming months. There will be no more funds availlable to employ these community people for the reminder of their 9months. Some of these people have gone to the CCMA wanting to be paid out for their reminder 5 months contract.
is there anything we as employers can do not to pay out the 5 months or what advice can you give us
