When Justice Is Delayed: Power, Harassment, and the Fight for Fairness Harassment in the workplace isn’t just a violation of ethics—it’s a painful betrayal of trust.  When those in power exploit their positions, the damage cuts deeper, especially when the systems designed to protect us fail to respond.  The ongoing allegations of sexual harassment involving the Eastern Cape Judge President remind us that this issue isn’t confined to offices or factories—it reaches even into the heart of our justice system.

His manager, Sarah, noticed his performance slipping and decided to have a quick chat about it. In passing, she said, "If you’re not happy here, maybe it’s time to move on." James, already on edge, took it as a push to resign. Without a formal discussion or exit interview, he submitted his resignation letter. Two weeks later, Sarah was hit with a CCMA case for constructive dismissal. Her mistake? Underestimating how a single sentence could be interpreted. The One Tiny Mistake That Starts Big Problems M ost workplace disputes don’t begin with major infractions—they start with small errors in communication, inconsistent policies, or a failure to address issues early.
