The South African Federation of Trade Unions has rejected the labour laws Amendment Bill.

The South African Federation of Trade Unions has rejected the Labour Laws Amendment Bill. The federation says, if passed, the amendments would threaten the livelihoods of workers.

“With the proposed changes, employers are not obliged to convene a formal disciplinary hearing before disciplining or dismissing a worker. No rights for new and young workers about dismissals. For the first six months of their employment, newly hired workers younger than 30, will not have the same protection as other workers against unfair dismissals, except when it is deemed an ‘automatically unfair dismissal. The attack on the national minimum wage.

Once Nedlac has submitted the amendments to the Department of Labour, the matter moves to Parliament for consideration.“We believe that this GNU is a political conspiracy of the parties rejected by the overwhelming majority of the working class, parties that agree on nothing else except a neoliberal onslaught, parties that want to privatise everything.
