UNDERSTANDING AND APPLYING THE BASICS OF SA LABOUR LAW PROGRAMME IN THE WORKPLACE


Why the need for this: 

All employers of people are expected to know how to apply and comply with the law.

Ignorance of the law is not a valid excuse for non-compliance and will not serve to protect organisations from facing legal action. 

In organisations , employees responsible for staff matters  and the business are required to know the dos and don’ts of labour law compliance and application but are often unaware or do not understand the law/changes and amendments in the law and/or experience a large amount of fear and confusion around what it means for them and/or generally do not know how they are meant to comply. 

Due to these failures organisations, big and small, are drawn down a path of painful, time consuming and expensive internal mismanagement, loss of top talent and retention of problem employees, costly CCMA/Bargaining council and labour court appearances and ultimately having their business reputation tarnished and productivity severely affected 

Further amendments of the law, new case law precedents, dealing with difficult employees, unions and union officials or commissioners at the CCMA and bargaining council add further stress and nuances to the issue of effective employee relations. 

How I can help:

My name is Pumani Ayer. I have worked in the employee relations space for over 26 years, managing, coaching, consulting and teaching on the various elements of labour law as well as organizational and personal performance improvement. This together with my qualifications and working experience has enabled me to understand, apply the labour law tenets comfortably and easily and transfer this knowledge to organisations for application.

I offer learning interventions geared at simplifying the law and its application for my clients so that they can operate in this minefield in a more confident manner, are able to apply the law with more ease and are not caught in the web of confusing legalese.

Programmes are available for managers of people, union staff, leaders of the business and HR professionals to fully equip them with understanding and applying labour law in their workplace. 

However, some organisations do not have the time and resources to spend on long drawn out programmes. They may simply require a clear understanding of the law and its application to them so that they can operate correctly and effectively with minimal outlays.

Aligned to this, I am offering a comprehensive one-day programme to provide:

·      a basic understanding of the most applicable labour law legislation to their organisations 

·      the dos and don’ts around application of the legislation 

·      Latest case law setting precedent in South African law 

·      Amendments to labour law that applies to their business 

·      Practical toolkit and reference guide to apply in the workplace 


Cost and offering: 

·      One day on site learning programme 

·      Provision of electronic copies of practical toolkit and workshop summary notes

·      An opportunity to raise specific concerns and queries in a safe working space 

·      Summary of key labour legislation on hand 

·      R10 000 for one day workshop 

·      Maximum of 15 delegates per session

·      Additional requirements will be discussed and costed as per employer requirements
