Employment And Labour [2024] UGCommC 64

Nile Breweries Limited v Sebuggwawo

Nile Breweries Limited v Sebuggwawo (Miscellaneous Application 252 of 2024) [2024] UGCommC 64 (18 March 2024)

Court
Commercial Court of Uganda
Case number
Miscellaneous Application 252 of 2024
Judge
Mutesi, J

The court found that the applicant established an extremely strong prima facie case of breach of confidentiality and unauthorised disclosure of trade secrets, supported by affidavit evidence and annexed emails. The respondent's conduct in transferring sensitive business information to his personal email and joining a competitor immediately after resignation created a real risk of destruction of evidence.

Court
Industrial Court of Uganda
Case number
Labour Dispute 57 of 2015

The court found that the claimant, as head of Human Resources, breached her contractual and policy-based duty of confidentiality by disclosing information about alleged fraud within the respondent organization to the media without the required authorization. The information was deemed confidential as it related to the core business of the respondent and was not in the public domain, having been resolved internally. The claimant's actions were not justified by public interest, as she had already reported the matter through internal channels and the issue had been addressed. The disciplinary pr…
