Thesis (LLM. (Labour Law)) -- University of Limpopo, 2011 / The definition of an employee in most protective labour legislations excludes various categories of workers. The definition of what an employee is, is different in labour legislation. A new presumption of what an employee is, is just a guideline and not exhaustive. The tests developed by our courts do not assist in defining an employee in boarderline cases. It is not simple as it originally seemed. In the beginning it seemed certain but in the end the definition can no longer be valid.
The definition of an employee is a journey of a thousand miles which begins with the test step-with no end. The words of Francis Bacan seem to hold water regarding most definition of an employee. Francis Bacan said I quote ‘if a man will begin with certainties, he shall end in doubts, but if he will be content to begin with doubts, he shall end in certainties.
