A Labour Court orders Aspen Pharmacare to reinstate an employee dismissed over allegations tied to picketing during lunch, and to pay him back pay following a prolonged legal dispute. The court’s decision follows accusations that the worker incited colleagues to join what was described as an unlawful picket.

The case is framed across the available report as a 10-year legal battle, highlighting the time taken to reach a final ruling. Details in the provided information focus on the court outcome—reinstatement and back pay—rather than on the underlying workplace conduct or the legal reasoning in full. As a result, the emphasis is on the remedy granted by the court and the fact that the dismissal does not stand.

No other angles or additional claims from competing outlets are included in the material provided, so the summary reflects only the court’s order and the central allegation of incitement to an unlawful picket during a lunch period.
