The parties to the dispute in this case was between Denko Industrial Corporation Bhd. (hereinafter to be referred as 'the company') and Nazariah Abbas (hereinafter to be called 'the claimant') who alleged that she was dismissed by the company without just cause or excuse, and it was arbitrary and capricious.

The claimant was appointed as the company's secretary and legal affairs manager with effect from 2 May 1994 and around the middle of May 1994 was also appointed as the human resources and administration manager of the company. At the time of the dismissal dated 2 August 1994 she was receiving a salary of RM4,500 per month and was still on probation for six (6) months.
