Labour legislation is very progressive in South Africa. Labour relations have come a long way in businesses and institutions of South Africa. Because of the current fair labour legislation, disputes between the management and workers can easily be settled in the workplace.
The scenario of labour relations was gloomy in the Apartheid era of South Africa. During that period, industrial relations were characterised by racial discrimination, union repression, conflict, authoritarian management and cheap labour policies.
The labour legislation that came into play after 1994 was a result of consultation between employers, labour and government. Thereafter, nine institutions have been established to nurture fair industrial relations. This labour legislation is described in the labour relations act South Africa.
Since 1994, the labour market of South Africa has undergone a huge transformation. General working conditions have improved for South Africans from different walks of life. Strategies to remove the labour inequalities that existed in the past have been implemented. The implementation of a new labour relations act South Africa has immensely influenced the South Africa’s labour market.
The labour market of South Africa is characterised by minimal skilled workers and mostly unskilled workers. The growth in the field of employment is outrun by the fast-growing population. It is multiplied by the constant loss of jobs in different sectors. It is because the economy of South Africa is shifting from the labour-intensive operations to the capital-intensive operations.
