Benefits of CCMA Intervention in Wage Disputes
In 2007, the CCMA established a department that was specifically tasked with the responsibility to support, promote and assist in matters relating to collective bargaining; especially in matters of public interest. This has enabled the CCMA to provide a specialist dispute resolution and aftercare service in collective bargaining matters that has earned a high degree of confidence in the labour market. The flexibility to intervene at any stage of the process (both pre- and post dispute), the development of a committed cohort of appropriately capacitated and resourced mediators and the ability to work with parties through complex collective bargaining issues have contributed to an admirable track record of achievement in some of South Africa’s most significant wage disputes. The presentation illustrates why parties can (and should) entrust the CCMA to intervene in wage disputes.
