He asked SunDefender for advice.
ADVICE
The law states that when an employee resigns, he or she is entitled to a salary until the last day of work and any outstanding leave money.
If your employer does not pay you, you can contact your nearest Department of Employment and Labour office to lay a complaint since they are the ones that have jurisdiction on labour issues.
