Labour Relations Act, 1995 (Act No. 66 of 1995)GuidelinesGuidelines issued in terms of Section 95(8) of the Labour Relations ActEmployers' Organisations23, 24 and 25. Definition of an employers' organisation |
23. | The LRA defines an employers' organisation as follows: |
"Any number of employers associated together for the purpose, whether by itself or with other purposes, of regulating relations between employers and employees or trade unions ".
24. | Therefore, an organisation cannot be registered as an employers' organisation or continue to operate as a registered employers' organisation unless— |
(a) | the employers who are members of the organisation have in fact associated together; |
(b) | the purposes for which they have associated together include regulating relations between employers and employees or trade unions. |
25. | It will therefore be necessary to examine the actual process of forming an employers' organisation as well as its composition and membership and the activities it undertakes on behalf of its members. |
