DOMESTIC worker Johanna Danguru (59) refused to do extra work for no pay and was pushed to the ground and called the k-word.
She refused to look after the children of her employer’s ex-wife’s friends.
Though she wasn’t called the k-word in her presence, she was heartbroken to find out her employer’s ex-wife had called her the k-word later.

Johanna from Tshepisong, Soweto told Daily Sun her employer’s ex-wife brought the kids.
“My employer has two kids, but the child of the ex-wife’s friend was also there,” said Johanna.
“I told her she must take the third child back as she wasn’t paying me,” she said.
She said it wasn’t the first time she had to look after more kids without being asked.
“She said I was just a worker and I must do what I was told,” and they started arguing and she was called her a bitch and pushed her to the ground.
“I told her I won’t push her back and phoned my employer,” she said.
He told her he’d not given them permission to bring an extra child. She asked him how he could do that without asking her.
Confronting the ex-wife in a recorded conversation that was recorded by the employer, which Daily Sun has, he’s accused of siding with the worker.
The ex-wife says: “Whatever! Take the k*****s’ side and not the mother of your children.”
Chairwoman of the Gauteng Domestic Workers Organisation Jabu Mangena said an employee can’t be forced to do things they didn’t agree to.
“For example, if I’ve agreed that I work from 7am to 4pm, if I work later my employer pays me overtime.”
Cops spokeswoman Brigadier Mathapelo Peters said an investigation was under way and no arrests had been made yet.
