Introduction
[1]	The applicant applies for leave to appeal to the Labour Appeal Court against the judgment in this matter handed down on 22 February 2017.

[2]	The applicant filed its notice of application for leave to appeal on 20 March 2017 (accompanied by a condonation application regarding the late filing of the application for leave to appeal) and written submissions 19 May 2017.

[3]	The first respondent filed its opposition to the application for leave to appeal on 18 May 2017.

[4]	There is no opposition to the condonation application and condonation is granted.

[5]	I am not persuaded that that there is a reasonable prospect of another court coming to a different decision.
