- Description
- The purpose of a strike is to ensure that the employer‘s business remains at a standstill until the demands of workers are met1.Workers have tried to increase the effect that strikes would have on the employer, as to obtaining their demands, through resorting to violence, violating property of employer and other people. Our collective bargaining system could be seen as contributing to low wages, and thelack of a balloting requirement. The Labour Relations Act (LRA)2 gives effect to the right to strikes and the circumstances under which it might lose its protected status3. There are certain requirements that need to be met to ensure strikes are protected and once they are not adhered to, there are detrimental consequences. This leads to the high levels of violent unprotected strike action in the country, which has a negative impact on our social and economic abilities as a country. This study investigates the different areas, and analyses all factors associated with unprotected strikes.
