An Ekurhuleni mother was summarily fired from her job at a chemicals company for apparently drinking water from a tap thereby allegedly contaminating it.

Nomusa Skosana told Sowetan that she was summoned to a meeting for drinking water from a water bath using her hand. A water bath is a laboratory equipment used to collect water and keep it in a specific temperature for chemical production.

Skosana, 28, of Tembisa, is employed as a line operator at Mecs Contract Filling and Manufacturing in Edenvale. She said she later learned that the meeting she was summoned to was just the beginning of her dismissal."He said 'what is the f##@n sh#t, are you drinking that water? Can't you see you are making that water dirty'," Skosana said.

The question is was she aware of the rules and regulations tht are required in the lab

Friendly warning: please people, don't eat or drink anything in a lab! Eww! Contaminating equipment is serious business. Making yourself sick is far worse! Not worth it.

That's absolute discrimination and nonsense. Plz dpt of labour intervene

Lab rules..no drinking and eating in the lab...then next thing we have outbreaks of disease...listeriosis .bcouse she is not following rules...plz..
