F.A.Qs

Frequently asked questions

Do I need employment contracts for all my employees?

Yes. According to the BCEA, every employee must be provided with a written employment contract outlining terms of employment, salary, working hours, leave, and notice periods. This protects both the employer and the employee.

How do I legally terminate an employee’s contract?

Termination must follow a fair and legal process in line with the Labour Relations Act. This includes substantive (valid reason) and procedural (fair process) fairness, especially in cases of misconduct, incapacity, or operational requirements (retrenchments).

What is the difference between UIF, PAYE, and SDL?

UIF (Unemployment Insurance Fund), PAYE (Pay As You Earn), and SDL (Skills Development Levy) are statutory deductions. Employers must register with SARS and the Department of Labour, deduct these amounts from employee salaries, and pay them over monthly.

What are the basic labour laws every South African business must comply with?

All businesses must comply with key labour legislation including the Basic Conditions of Employment Act (BCEA), Labour Relations Act (LRA), Employment Equity Act (EEA), and the Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHSA). These laws govern working hours, leave, termination, employee rights, and workplace safety.
