Includes bibliographical references / The aim this dissertation is to establish what the purpose of labour law is and thereafter determine whether or not the Labour Relations Act 66 of 1995 (LRA) is doing enough to make sure that such purpose is realised. It is important to note that this paper is only limited to the purpose of labour law and the application of the LRA as far as non-standard workers (particularly temporary employment services) are concerned. If the purpose of labour law is established it will be easier for the legislator to focus the developments of the LRA in line with the desired purpose. Furthermore, an understanding of the purpose of labour law, makes the job of the courts much easier when it comes to the interpretation of such provisions. In doing so the non-standard workers will be protected from some of the difficulties which they are currently facing in the workplace.
