I contracted to a company who insisted that I had to be taken on their payroll and could not be onboarded as a supplier as my new company did not meet their BEE requirements.
My contract was for the period Jan to May and then extended to the end of September.
When I received my initial payslip at the end of Feb, I noticed that I had accrued leave and the payroll administrator advised that a manual adjustment needed to be completed as the leave accrued was only for Feb and not January as per my signed contract.
Since then each month I have accrued leave. I have taken one days leave and the company still paid my hourly rate for this day of leave.
I provided notice to the company and am rather dismayed to receive my final payslip which reflects my actual leave balance however they are not wanting to pay the leave earned out to me.
I have a leave balance report from ESS as at the end of July with my leave balance and leave accrued.
The HR department is not responding to any of my emails.
Please advise if this can be reffered to the CCMA for resolution? Are you able to assist me?
