The Labour Relations Act provides for self-regulation of industries through the
medium of the Bargaining Council.
NBCWPS provides services to its parties and non-parties, who
are covered by its scope:
* Forum and facilities for Collective Bargaining
* Resolution of labour disputes.
* Enforcement of collective agreements.
* Forum and process to negotiate and regulate employee benefits.
* Deal with applications for exemptions on collective agreements
* Make inputs and proposals on policy and legislative developments.
The Council is constituted on the basis of equal representation in terms of both
the Employers and Employee representatives. All registered Employers in the
sector qualify to join the Council either as a party (through a specific
industry employer association) or as a non-party. Trade unions wanting to be
party to the Council must at least have membership of 1000 employees in the
sector.
Levy contributions are equally shared between the employer and employees. For
employees employed by an Employer who is party to the Council, their
contribution is R4 from the employee and R4 from the employer with the overall
contribution being R8.00 for an individual employee. Employees in employment of
the Employer who is either a non party or themselves are not members of the
trade unions that are parties to the Council are levied R8 with their employer
paying the same amount for an individual employee. Overall their levy is R16.00.
