Good day,
I was recently retrenched by a company in SAIF
My last salary check was held ransom until I agreed to accept it as final payment. I was broke, this was blackmail and I did state that to them at the time.
Before that I asked MOHRE for help but they said SAIF was outside of their control.
I wrote to SAIF but no response.
My contract stated clearly 30 days notice and I was given a good reference so the parting was simply for company restructuring, I was retrenched not dismissed, I received no 30 day notice. I had worked there for over 12 months and received no end of service benifit.
Is this all legal?
SAIF zone employment law

No but the only way to fight is to file a case unfortunately.
