Four fishing companies at Walvis Bay have taken legal action against workers, who allegedly, unlawfully left their jobs in August.

More than 600 workers, under the Namibia Fishing Industries and Fishermen Workers Union, supposedly resigned and left without giving the company the stipulated one-month notice, as per the terms of their employment agreement.

Hadago, Kuiseb Fishing Enterprises, Cavema and Camoposatu Investment are all represented by attorney Richard Metcalfe.
