Schedule 6 of the ERP 2007 deals with standard clauses pertaining to the procedures for settling disputes. In this instance, the collective agreement expressly provided that an employee could challenge through the union what he 
or she perceived to be unjust and/or unfair dismissal. The collective agreement provided for the relief that the employee could obtain, that is, reinstatement of employment and all benefits if the dismissal is deemed to be unfair. Given the provisions in 
the collective agreement, if such a dispute over dismissal cannot be decided by the Tribunal then the intention of the collective agreement is defeated. }{\f0\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid5989411

grievances and disputes, and all such matters, not just those over dismissals. Clause 14 was later amended by an award or an agreement dated the 4th day of May 2001. The amendment was by addition of sub-clauses (d) and (e) which provides that grievances o

It is correct that the ERP has made no express provisions on what the r
emedies would be in cases of employment disputes. The omission of provisions containing remedies does not mean that the cause of action can not be filed in the Tribunal otherwise there is no purpose of allowing the parties to file an employment dispute in
 the ERT.}{\f0\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid5989411

Dismissals are specifically covered under employment grievance procedures and the remedies for employment grievances are also provided for by the ERP 2007. If the Tribunal has powers to order reinstatement in grievances over dismissals then i
ndeed it is absurd and inconsistent if it were not able to order reinstatement in disputes over dismissals. More so, the collective agreement provides for the remedies. In absence of any statutory provision, the ERT is at liberty to order remedies provide

Having made that finding the Tribunal erred in coming to a conclusion that since ERP is silent on the aspect of remedies in employment disputes procedure, the only way the dismissal could be brought is by way of an employment grievance. Let 
me ask; what will happen if there is a dispute or difference over any one of the terms of employment? The ERT is perfectly entitled to hear the matter. What will it do because there is no remedy in the ERP? Will it refuse to hear the cases over which the

}{\b\f0\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid5989411\charrsid5989411  is a very wide phrase. It would appear that the Arbitration Tribunal is charged with the task of resolving the trade 
dispute in that connection. Clearly in the context of more general terms and conditions awards, the arbitration Tribunal would appear to be permitted by long-standing practice to interfere with the terms and conditions of employees. In other words, an emp
l
oyer in the position of the Appellant does not have complete freedom to deal with its employees. While there is no doubt that the common law and many of the principles of the law of contract will inform the manner in which an Arbitration proceeds, it is p
l
ain that the Tribunal is entitled to make awards outside that which would normally be within the ambit of a common law arrangement. Generally speaking the Arbitration Tribunal is empowered to make an award in a trade dispute connected with the employment,
 or with the terms of employment and to make orders incidental thereto. As mentioned above the dispute is referred to the Tribunal for settlement: section 5A....}{\b\f0\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid5989411

h Court was concerned with an appeal from the Sugar Industry Tribunal and the legislation which then governed industrial relations in the sugar industry in Fiji. An industrial dispute had arisen because a person employed by the Fiji Sugar Corporation who 
w
as a member of the Sugar Milling Staff Officers Association had been dismissed from his employment. In the result, the matter was referred to the Sugar Industry Tribunal. The Tribunal ruled that it did not have power to order reinstatement of the member o
f
 the union. In the Supreme Court, Rooney, J. examined the structure of the legislation and came to the conclusion that the Tribunal did have such a power. What is significant about the case is that in some respects the structure of that legislation is the
 
same as the structure of the Trade Disputes Act. In particular, in both the sugar industry legislation, like the Trade Disputes Act, the powers of the Sugar Industry Tribunal in dealing with a dispute under the sugar industry legislation were also not exp
l
icitly specified just as they are in respect of the Arbitration Tribunal under the Trade Disputes Act. Rooney, J. concluded that it was important to look at the purpose of the legislation which was to reduce industrial action in the sugar industry. He rec
ognised that in the ordinary course of things reinstatement was not available as a remedy under the common law...}{\b\f0\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid5989411 "}{\b\f0\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid5989411\charrsid5989411  }{

I am of the judgment that although there is no specific express provision for employment disputes remedies; the power to order reinstate
ment is implied in the ERP 2007 and can also be derived from the terms of the collective agreement. Reinstatement is a discretionary remedy which will only be awarded if the Tribunal thinks fit to so order.}{
