[L112] WHAT IS UNFAIR LABOUR PRACTICE & HOW TO REPORT IT TO THE CCMA - SA EMPLOYMENT ATTORNEY 

In south africa. If you are a rich business owner. These " labour laws" will not apply. Sad but true story. You either want to work(under the existing poor conditions )or look for another job. "Because you are lucky to have a job and someone will replace you tomorrow for less money than you earning so be greatful"

These are really helpful Mr Moolla. Thank you.

For the past 6 years,,the line management had an agreement to compensating worker with 2 hours per overtime worked to cover traveling due to depleted staff and company's failur to fill the open post,and this practice continued to new line management, so now,the company had dismissed 4 people out of 25 staff,for having claimed these 2 extras hours, the past management were all called in during the DC hearing as witness, and all of them admitted knowing this 2 hours agreement since there went to pension,with all this witnesses the company decided to dismis only 4 people,and when they asked why only them while all the department was claiming this 2 extras hours,the internal auditor said,he was only instructed to look at 4 people not other staff,,we went to ccma conciliation,and the company opted to arbitration and now we are charged with dishonesty then to fraud Is this dismal fair? And what are the chances of us winning this case at arbitration.and we have 8 years working for this company with warnings.

Can I ask something sir . My boss and I have a verbal agreement to work as an electrician and mechanical technician but all of the sudden they putting me as a welder and I don’t have the skill and since it is a verbal contract I feel I have no evidence to prove since it ain’t a written contract. The boss has tried swearing at me so much I got traumatised. I don’t know what is the best step by step to complain about this since it is only verbal . Should I record him for doing this again or should I open a case at ccma

Hi I was unfairly dismissed the company had no evidence to dismiss me and witnesses was dishonest before on 3 occasions, I also believe it’s an unfair labour practice .

I have worked full time without a contract for over 2 years in a restaurant.They charged me R40 per shift for breakes, which at this time I didn't realise was illeagal.This adds up to a significant amount.I returned to corporate position for a year and unfortunately due to Covid, was retranched.I returned as part time casual and worked there last 3 weeks, they now charged us R 50 in breakage fees. I was mistreated by the new manager and under these circumstances decided to resign.I emailed them and was very polite. They now are withholding my basic salary. Please if you could kindly advise.

Been working at a retail company with no contract for two years now. I do all the store supervisor work and been earning R20 p/h, 180hrs per month. What can I do to change this? Please assist

Last year we had the taxi strike. On the day it started, there was no warning. absolutely no one knew that a strike was going to happen until it did. And u know how dangerous the strike was. ppl died etc. My question is, I was at work on this day and had no way of getting home. I rely on uber and there was no public transport. My husband worked for a company who refused to allow him emergency leave to get me and take me safely home. Are they allowed to do this? This was literally a family emergency. How can an employer refuse leave for emergencies? If he left even though they declined could he be fired ?

If you need an attorney, but cannot afford one, what are your options?

Now he works for a company who asks for sick notes even though u are absent for one day. The moment he messages to say he is ill, their response is "make sure u go to a Dr ". I know this is illegal, but unfortunately if u are working for a company it's difficult to take action since they might target u until u eventually get fired. Is there any way a company can be reported anonymously?

Good morning I had a hearing last year and my verdict was that I am fired with immediate effect however my employer told me that he will not fire me because he still needs me in his employ. However the condition of not being dismissed was that I will sign a final written warning (I had no warnings before this) and that I will be placed on probation for 3 months which meant my contract was terminated. In your opinion is this a legal thing to do? Thanks

Hi Legal Leaders, is it wise to take the employer to CCMA direct or via a legal firm for unpaid salary that's under 3 years old?

Good day. I am charged at work. But my charge only tells me what company rule I broke. But doesn't tells what I did to have broken that company rule. Is the charge fair?

The scenario of an employee who is five years in the position and now there is an unfair labour practice dispute lodged by the employees in the same division. The allegations is that the employee was not qualified for the position and apparently the qualifications were tailored to suit the employee. The position was advertised and four candidates were interviewed. Now there is a witch hunt in the organisation where employees are instigated by a former employee who was the HR head of the department taking revenge for reasons known to him. Is this case, relevant to be heard by the court of law?
