Employment
(6) This section shall not apply where an employee is a member of—
(a)
a registered pension or provident fund scheme under the Retirement
Benefits Act;
(b)
a gratuity or service pay scheme established under a collective
agreement;
(c)

[Act No. 3 of 1997.]
36. Payment in lieu of notice
Either of the parties to a contract of service to which section 35(5) applies,
may terminate the contract without notice upon payment to the other party of the
remuneration which would have been earned by that other party, or paid by him
as the case may be in respect of the period of notice required to be given under
the corresponding provisions of that section.
37. Conversion of causal employment to term contract
(1) Notwithstanding any provisions of this Act, where a casual employee—
(a)
works for a period or a number of continuous working days which
amount in the aggregate to the equivalent of not less than one
month; or
(b)
performs work which cannot reasonably be expected to be
completed within a period, or a number of working days amounting
in the aggregate to the equivalent of three months or more,
the contract of service of the casual employee shall be deemed to be one where
wages are paid monthly and section 35(1)(c) shall apply to that contract of
service.
(2) In calculating wages and the continuous working days under subsection (1),
a casual employee shall be deemed to be entitled to one paid rest day after a
continuous six days working period and such rest day or any public holiday which
falls during the period under consideration shall be counted as part of continuous
working days.
(3) An employee whose contract of service has been converted in
accordance with subsection (1), and who works continuously for two months or
more from the date of employment as a casual employee shall be entitled to such
terms and conditions of service as he would have been entitled to under this Act
had he not initially been employed as a casual employee.
(4) Notwithstanding any provisions of this Act, in any dispute before the
Industrial Court on the terms and conditions of service of a casual employee, the
Industrial Court shall have the power to vary the terms of service of the casual
employee and may in so doing declare the employee to be employed on terms
and conditions of service consistent with this Act.
