TOPIC: CCMA ADJOURNS TALKS BETWEEN AMCU
BUSINESS DAY
Summary
It was reported from the business time on the 6
th
of February 2014 that Anglo and
American platinum , Impala Holdings and Lonmin mineworkers were striking for
wage increase, they wanted their basic salary to be more than R12500 a month.
The company was losing about R200million of revenue a day due to strike. The
union representing the workers (AMCU) and the three companies have not been
able to reach an agreement to such an extent that the CCMA had to be involved.
Judging from the fact that the company is losing 200 million revenue a day, it proves
that it was a good time for workers to strike because this will force the management
to respond or make a quick decision or reach agreement so that they wont lose
money anymore
STAKEHOLDERS
AMCU- AMCU is the union the union that represent the interest of workers, it
is negotiating with management on behalf of employees regarding to wage or
salary increase
CCMA (government)- CCMA is overseeing the discussion between the union
and the three companies and is trying to come up with a solution so that an
agreement can be reached. Their aim is to resolve the dispute through
conciliation and arbitration. The CCMA ensures that the negotiation is fair for
both parties, section112
Management (the three companies) - it was there to present the interest of the
owners. They employed the workers but now they are refusing to pay the
increase that employees demand, they are negotiating with the union
representative on the amount of money that they can be able to pay


Employment laws
Labour relations act (Act 66 of 1995), employees have the right to go on strike
provided that they have followed the procedure
Advice
Management should at least consider agreeing close to the amount that the
employees want, so that employees can return back to work instead of losing
billion and millions of money.
Both parties should parties which the company and employers should
consider that in order for business to generate income, they depend on
employee and employees also depends on the company for their wages and
salaries so the agreement should be reached as soon as possible

criminality, intimidation and violence perpetrated.

21 MAY 2014
TOPIC: MINE WAGE DEAL IN SIGHT
THE TIMES
The time article stated that the AMSES sent by mining companies of workers will
hopefully end the 4 months strike. Anglo American Platinum, impala platinum and
Lonmin have to agree to reconcile with AMCU regarding to wage increase that is
needed by the AMCU members. The mining companies offered workers increase of
up to 10% increase will allow starting level workers to get paid R12500 a month plus
benefits. If workers do accept the offer, this will automatically enable the workers to
get paid for those months they have been on strike, and they predict that the money
could be up to R5000 depending on how long the worker has been striking. AMCU
still stands firm on its demand of R12500 a month . CEOs of the mining companies
sad that the workers were not aware of the 10% increase that was offered to them
and that is why the CEOs book the intuitive of communicating with the workers via
smses to make them aware. AMCU members have denied the offer even though the
majority of works showed interest in going back to work. Even though CEOs of the
mining companies though it was a great idea to send smses to workers, AMCU
members think that sending message to workers is undermining the countrys labour
legislation. The on-going talks between AMCU and the mining companies will take
place of the labour court will be overseen by Judge Hilary
Stakeholders
AMCU- amcu wants R12500 a month , excluding benefits by 2017,they
rejected 10% increase offered by in employers
Anglo American Platinum , impala platinum and Lonmin- they have agreed to
reconcile with AMCU regarding to wage increase
Employers oppose AMCUs claims of them undermine the countrys labour
legislation by sending smses to AMCU members, they want to reach
agreement that will benefit both AMCU and the companies
Labour court- talks between AMCU and the companies will be facilitated here

Employment
Labour relations act (act 65 of 1995)
Advice
Platinum mining companies should not send smses to workers to workers instead
they should try to talk to them face to face because it will be more effective and
some workers may claim that they didnt receive the message, those workers who
want to return to work they should go back at work and accept the 10% offer

















DATE:12 May 2014
TOPIC:DISMISSAL: EMPLOYERS MUST PLAY FAIR
BUSINESSDAY
Employers cannot dismiss employees for poor work performance leading to failure to
meet target aroused extraneous factors outside of its control even during probation
.the code of good practice states that dismissal should be based on fair reasons. An
employer must consider all factors that management have impeded the employees
from meeting such targets before dismissing an employee. Thulani Ngcobo of
palance engineering PTY LTD who was probation for six months was responsible for
security new infrastructure contracts for the employers was required to generate a
total of R100million fees for the year. Ngcobo argued that he was unable to meet the
target due to the limit of operations budget, lack of computer software, office cards
and limited human resource. The labour court appeal held the labour court findings
and the employees dismissal was substantively unfair and reasoned that they were
obtainable due to tools of trade and second, the company was unable to attract l..
Contract and that was out of Ngcobos control. The court also said that a fair
dismissal is always required whether an employee is probation or not
Stakeholders
Labour court- it has been able to resolve the dispute between the two parties,
it has been able to act in favour of Thabo Ngcobo
Employer-it is the one that made the decision to dismiss the employee without
considering fact
Employees-was fighting against the decision of the employer to unfairly
dismiss him
Employment law
Skill development act( act 97 of 1998) encourage employers to use
workplace as active learning environment
Labour relations act( act 55 of 1998) prohibits unfair dismissal and unfair
labour practises
Advices
Employees should take into account all tools of trade before settings targets and
evaluating employees performance, employers should check what lead to failure of
performance before dismissing an employee. They should also consider employees
capabilities before placing them. The company shouldnt set high targets they should
start at low target then increase when they see that there is an improvement

04 June 2014
Summary
The South Africa is not creating enough jobs and it also does not generate sufficient
tax revenue, South Africa needs to boost the economic growth by implementing the
national development plan. Nazmeera Moola stated that in 1993 the government
budgeted deficit on almost 10% GDP. There was a slippage to the financial crisis
because f the growth that keeps on disappointing.
Last year the University of Cape Towns saldru economic research used indicators
to calculate the poverty within the country and each indicator had its own threshold.,
the proportion of measures was 37% in 1993 it declined to 8% in 2010.serve poverty
was defined as anyone deprived in five of the indicators of which in 1993 the
population was 17% and by 2010 it over 1%.eskom, Telkom and Transnet have
been the drawbacks on growth. The government regulations have been slowing
down. The labour legislation disheartens job creation by making it problematic to fire
underachieving staffs.the disaster of platinum belt is the indication of the essential for
strike ballot. The government is main purpose South Africa mining volumes get thin
in mid 2000s.
Comment
Based on the article and Nazmeera Moola view South Africa should increase the job
opportunities as the level of unemployment increase. Once the job decreases the
poverty level also increases. The South Africas growth has averaged an insufficient
1.9%. In this article government nee to increase economic growth rate of the country
so that more people can get employed and so that people may be able to fight
poverty
