⚖️ Received a CCMA Notice? Don’t Ignore It.

A CCMA referral can have serious implications for your business. Receiving a notice doesn’t mean you’ve lost the case — but failing to prepare can put your business at a disadvantage.

As an employer, make sure you:

✔️ Understand the nature of the dispute
✔️ Review the referral and important dates
✔️ Gather contracts, warnings, policies and supporting evidence
✔️ Identify relevant witnesses
✔️ Prepare properly for conciliation, con-arb or arbitration
✔️ Get professional advice if you’re unsure about the process

Don’t wait until the hearing date to start preparing.

What happens when an employee refuses to sign a disciplinary warning? ⚖️

Refusing to sign does not automatically make a warning invalid. What matters is that the correct disciplinary process is followed and properly documented.

Ensure the warning is clearly explained, record the relevant details and the employee’s refusal to sign, and have a witness confirm that the warning was issued and explained.

Proper HR procedures and accurate documentation can help protect your business and promote fair, consistent workplace discipline.

Need professional guidance with employee warnings, disciplinary procedures or workplace disputes? Van Biljon HR & Labour Law Consulting is here to assist.

Employing undocumented workers can expose your business to serious legal and financial risk. ⚖️🇿🇦

South African employers have a responsibility to ensure that foreign nationals employed in their workplace have the necessary legal authorisation to work.

Valid work permits and immigration documentation should be verified before employment and monitored throughout the employment relationship. If documentation expires or an employee is found to be working without the required authorisation, employers should seek professional advice and follow the correct legal process rather than acting hastily.

Strong compliance procedures can help businesses reduce legal risk, protect their reputation and maintain a compliant workplace.

Need assistance with foreign employees, work permits, HR compliance or labour law procedures? Van Biljon HR & Labour Law Consulting can help.

Probation is NOT a free pass to dismiss. ⚖️

Probation gives employers an opportunity to assess an employee’s performance and suitability for the role — but it still needs to be managed fairly and correctly.

Employers should set reasonable probation periods, communicate expectations clearly, monitor performance, provide guidance and support, address concerns early, and give employees a fair opportunity to improve.

Most importantly, document the process.
Effective probation management can help reduce workplace disputes, support better performance and protect your business.

Need guidance on probation, poor performance, disciplinary procedures or employee relations? Van Biljon HR & Labour Law Consulting can assist employers with practical, professional labour law support.

Do you really need a full-time HR Manager? 🤔

For many small and medium-sized businesses, having a full-time HR Manager on the payroll simply isn’t necessary — but having access to professional HR support, labour law expertise and employee relations (IR) guidance absolutely is.

An internal HR Manager can cost R20,000+ per month, before you even factor in leave, benefits and other employment costs.

With Van Biljon’s HR Retainer Services, your business can access ongoing specialist support at a fraction of the cost. From HR compliance and labour law advice to disciplinary matters, employee relations and workplace risk management, we help you navigate the people side of your business with confidence.

And unlike an internal employee, our specialist support doesn’t disappear when someone takes leave. 😉

✅ Monthly HR Retainer Options
✅ Labour Law & IR Expertise
✅ HR Compliance & Risk Management
✅ Disciplinary & Employee Relations Support
✅ Ongoing Professional HR Advice
✅ Cost-effective support for SMEs

More expertise. More support. Less overhead.

📩 Get in touch with Van Biljon today to find out how an HR Retainer Package can support your business.
