Get to Know the Law (New Employment Act #3 of 2019) Before the Law Gets to Know You

Understanding the impact of labour laws to your business is critical. No organization can exist without understanding the implications of the country’s labour laws and how to implement them. The New Employment Code Act No. 3 of 2019 was recently enacted into Law and all employers were given a one (1) year deadline from 9th May, 2019 to 8th May 2020 to implement the provisions of this Act. There is no time. In order to ensure that all companies are compliant with the Code Act, KSM will be running Labour Law Compliance workshops across the country.

These workshops will examine the recently enacted labour laws and discuss Employer implications and how to align with the CODE ACT going forward. We will also discuss how to review and implement the Policies highlighted in the Employment Code Act No. 3 of 2019.
