Fundraiser gets the boot for foul language during argument with CEO
Daily News
|October 29, 2025
SHOUTING inappropriate language at senior management in the office when taken to task for being late at work could cost you your job, as a fundraiser at the SA Medical and Educational Foundation discovered.
THE Labour Court has confirmed the dismissal of a fund raiser at a NPO after she hurled inappropriate language at her CEO during an argument about her being late at work.

Kayla Jenecker, during a heated argument with the CEO of the nonprofit organisation, apparently used the phrase “screw you” repeatedly towards him and in front of other colleagues. While Jenecker maintained that he uttered these words and it had not been her, she was convicted of gross misconduct during a disciplinary hearing and fired.
She fought this in arbitration but lost her case there when her dismissal was found to be fair. Aggrieved with this finding, she turned to the Cape Town Labour Court in a bid to get her job back.
