INDUSTRY NEGOTIATIONS – ENGINEERING 2024.
WAGE NEGOTIATIONS AND OTHER SUBSTANTIVE
ISSUES document.
2. Relevant Provisions of South African Labour Legislation:
o Labour Relations Act (LRA), 1995:
, Section 32: Provides for the extension of
agreements to non-parties. The Minister of
Employment and Labour can extend the terms of
a collective agreement to non-parties if it is in
the public interest, and if the agreement has
been registered with the Bargaining Council.
Section 23: Deals with the recognition of trade
unions and employer organizations, and can
relate to the scope of agreements.
Section 51: Pertains to the registration of trade
unions and employer organizations and can
affect the enforceability of collective
agreements.
3. Discussion of Provisions:
o Extension Mechanism: The LRA allows for the
extension of agreements to non-parties to ensure
uniformity and fairness in working conditions across
an industry. This is meant to prevent employers from
gaining a competitive advantage by opting out of
collective agreements that set minimum standards.
o Public Interest: The Minister’s decision to extend the
agreement is based on public interest considerations,
which include ensuring fair competition and
protecting workers' rights.
