Labour Minister shocked by how some employers treat workers

Thulas NxesiThis follows media reports about Amos Mabuza who is now partially blind due to a freak accident at work.After 30 years of service, the father of four has been left without a job and cannot look after his family.

“We think that it was very irresponsible, it was criminal by the employer who has worked for 30 years for that particular employer, once injured he’s neglected, he is fired. We as the department are going to be able to follow up this matter, that’s why we are here with the DG and the compensation fund is here. We are going to quickly launch the investigation while on the other side dealing with the issue of compensation.

Is very difficult inside industrial companies

He acts stupid... Wake up Nxesi and stop dreaming...

Minister I challenge you to go to this so called small family business and take a look , mostly Durban ,and see the exploitation of workers

You don't know till you see it happening

Shocked by what ,that discrimination does still exists,that black employees are payed lesss then white falk

Acting like they don't know, au🤦🏾‍♂️

He banna; by the way who was minister before?

He was a unionist at some point. He knows very well how some employers treat their stuff

Their always shocked

admin, did you say 'shocked'🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️❓❓❓

The Minister must first clean up the CCMA & Bargaining councils. Commissioners are corrupt & also sell cases. Right to fair labour practices will never be realised with the status quo. Commissioners are law unto themselves & no one takes action even if it can be reported.

Certainly a person who was once in the Leadership of a huge and most influential Labour Union(SADTU) can't be surprised about the plight of the working class. I don't doubt that such appalling conditions were discussed several instances in COSATU Congresses🙆‍♀️

This headline reminds me of Cyril saying the same... The same minister was also shocked on the Nkandla cost whilst he was Minister at Public Works

All these politicians are shocked by everything, where have they been living? Under rocks.. These people are so out of touch with reality.. Now that's the shocker

no commission of enquiry to investigate the shocks?

This is not something new, even now after 25 in the so called democracy we still subjected to what we thought have got rid off

This minister isnt from Union? What do they do vele as unions?

Shocked!like father,like son.....Cyril was also shocked when there was loadshedding

It seems that the later day leadership I has adopted a notion of slumbering on duty for member of cabinet including the president seems to be surprised by the plethora of challenges that our country is and has been struggling with from time immemorial .

Nonsense

But SARS want it's employees to work 199 hours per month before they can claim overtime, 199 hours.

They r always shocked

Politicians and being shocked

This one lies through his ugly teeth, who does not know that employers are being I'll treated in some companies

Shocked lol!!! I'm shocked that you are the minister of labour

Thought he was a unionist?

MphoMorolane teach this shocked minister a thing or two

true, the employer in private companies are treating some employees like trash, they pay them R550 pre month and some are not allowed to joing unions, we are not yet free in this country

South African domiciled companies are the worst! Foreign companies treat workers a lot better from my experience.

Like president like his minister They're shocked or dreaming

ANC politicians are always in shock. This shows how they are not in touch with the people they lead. I'm in shock this, I'm in shock that... Sad

What shocks you Minister ? As if you do not know that our people are mistaken to Baboons, they are being under paid by the same employers Mr Mothibi was poisoned while working for Transnet in BFN to date justice has nor been done. So let's start there.

Where do these ministers and the president live? They are always shocked by well known, daily realities of our people.

Government of the shocked.

Shocked he's still a minister after defending Zuma.. spineless pseudo communist

What is he doing? He will do nothing

Why the Minister is shocked?

I'm also shocked that this nkandla defender is a minister.

YES.TAKE ACTION. BUT REMEMBER THOSE MILLIONS UNEMPLOYED DUE 2 BORDER GATES BEING LEFT OPEN 4 MOSTLY YOUNG SKILLED WORKERS FRM AFRICA COMING 2 WORK 4 LESS MONEY WHICH THEY THEN EXCHANGE INTO THER OWN CURRENCY 4 MORE. NO TAXES & UNDERMINES UR MINIMUM WAGE LEGISLATION & JOB CREATION

Where do u live,dis is South Africa,anything is possible😳😳

How Mr minister where have you been? Walking through this country with blinkers on? It’s like the LRA never happened that’s true for workers across the spectrum

This one is useless

After all these years workers being exploited and is shocked, was he in Dreamland

Hebanna

Can the word 'shock' be replaced with something relevant. Say, ' the Minister is made aware of the ongoing...'

Omaka

He is really shocked

Hee bann but this guy was a union not so long ago...shocked kanjani?

This one reminds me of fire pool.

Thats still happening in many workers,Labour department need to audit all companies

He must ask for annual report from CCMA_SA.

The fake new dawn is always shocked.

it runs in the executive 😂

So a unionist out there is shocked by reality of employer employee relations that describes why labor unions exist? 🤷🏼‍♂️ now I’m shocked!!! 😳

How can you be shocked Minister? Kanti what was the basis of fighting for workers while you were in the labour Union? Perhaps being in the ministry in the previous leadership made you not to be in touch with afflictions the workers going through everyday? Mhmmm

Some ministers need to be told to the face gore ba tlwaela ba masepa

Since Nkandla he was shocked 😲😲

Labour and Employment Minister

That's not fire pool , reason his shocked its because his inspector do not visit work place's

When was the last time a minister was not shocked about SA as a whole, they're all forever shocked

Mxm these ones are always shocked

This one,he's incompetent. He'll forever be shocked
