  • business rescue
  • fixed-term contracts
  • the employer’s vicarious liability for acts of employees, inclusive of them not complying with the relevant COVID-19 health and safety prescriptions
  • terminating employment lawfully for operational reasons
  • settlement agreements
  • the employer’s and employees’ rights and obligations during a retrenchment exercise
  • the interpretation of employees’ contracts of employment
  • payments of bonuses

By prioritising continuous learning and staying informed, HR practitioners and labour relations specialists can navigate the complexities of the modern workplace, ensuring both organisational and employee well-being.

It is apparent that government initially took the viewpoint that vaccination against Covid-19 should not be compulsory.  However, it appears that the recently-promulgated Consolidated Directions on Occupational Health and Safety Measures (‘the Directions’)[1] signifies a very different approach.

Watch out for the SALLR 37th Annual Seminar this year.
