EMPLOYERS RESPONSIBILTY IN TERMS OF SECTION 32 OF THE BASIC CONDITIONS OF EMPLOYMENT ACT:

An employer must pay remuneration not later than 7-days after:

* Completion of the period for which the remuneration is payable

* Termination of the Employment Contract.

What if I am not paid and what recourse do I have when my employer refuse to pay me the minimum wage as determined by in the National Minimum Wages Act, Act 9 of 2018.

The matter may be referred to the CCMA in terms of Section 73A of the Basic Conditions of Employment Act.

* It is important to note that there is no specific timeframe in which
the referral to the CCMA must be made, as long as your claim has
not prescribed.

* A claim will prescribe after 3 years of the date on which the
amount became due and payable to you.

What amounts can I claim:

1. Leave Pay

2. Sunday Pay and Public Holiday Pay

3. Overtime

4. Amounts short paid i.t.o the National Minimum Wages Act.

5.All amounts payable in terms of the Employment Contract.

Once the CCMA has excepted the referral the matter will be referred to a process called con/arb. It is very important to note that neither of the parties can object to arbitration following directly after conciliation in the event that the matter cannot be settled between the parties.

Because of the urgent nature of the claim the CCMA will attempt to finalize such matters in one day.
