Lesson Outline
Strike action taken by employees can bring a business to its knees. Are you aware of your right as an employer during a strike?
The Labour Relations Act provides for aggrieved employees to take action in the form of a strike, but certain rules must be adhered to for the strike to be legal. If not, employers are allowed to take steps against these employees, including lock out and in serious cases, dismissal.
In this lesson we go through the dangerous landscape that regulates strikes in South Africa.
• Employees right to strike as a constitutional right
o Protected strike vs Unprotected strike
• Employers recourse of lock out
o Protected lock out vs Unprotected lock out
o Replacement labour
• Limitation on the right to strike and the recourse of lock out
• What is a secondary strike
• Picketing
• Essential services, minimum services and maintenance services
