May employers exclude candidates for employment based on the fact that they have a criminal record, or may an employee be dismissed if the employer discovers that an employee has a criminal record?
COSATU gave notice to NEDLAC of their intention to embark on nation-wide protest action on Monday, 7 October 2024. What does this mean for employers?
If an employer contemplates dismissing employees based on operational requirements (retrenchment), the Labour Relations Act (LRA) requires the employer to follow certain procedures. However, may an employer approach employees informally and strike a deal by signing a mutual separation agreement, thereby avoiding the legal technicalities of the LRA?
The challenge of dealing with irregular or ‘fake’ sick notes continues. Taking disciplinary action against employees may backfire, as happened in the case of Woolworths vs Maseko and others (2024) LAC.
This year 16 June (Youth Day) falls on a Sunday. Therefore Monday, 17 June, is also a public holiday. So, what must employees be paid?
does withdrawal to work overtime constitute Strike action?
Reply to Ayanda: If employees collectively refuse to work overtime in support of a demand, it does amount to “strike” action.
