The requirement of notice of industrial action in South African labour law

This dissertation is a critical analysis of the provisions of sec
64(l)(b) and (c), 66(2)(b) and 77(l)(b) and (d) of the Labour
Relations Act 66 of 1995 which prescribe notice of industrial
action as a requirement of protected industrial action in South
Africa.
It traces the historical background of the requirement. It also
addresses issues such as the purpose(s) of the notices, their scope
of application, meaning, implications, who must give notice, to
whom must notice be given, timing, computation, their duration,
the consequences of failure to comply with them and various
potential difficulties in the practical application of the notice
requirement as well as the unintended consequences flowing from
the provisions.
Recommendations are made for the amendment of the Act in
certain respects. The dissertation concludes that there is no
justification for the inclusion in the Act of this requirement.
The law is stated as at 30 September 2005. / Jurisprudence / LL.M.
