Protecting consumers in anticipated two-pot pension system

The Public Investment Corporation,  South Africa's state-owned asset manager and a key investor in social infrastructure, has released a new research paper proposing a transformative, investment-led approach to revitalising the Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) sector. South Africa's education system faces a structural bottleneck, with the number of matriculants surpassing the intake capacity of conventional tertiary institutions. The PIC says while the TVET sector presents a viable alternative pathway, it remains underutilised due to persistent challenges, including misalignment between training programmes and the needs of the economy. To unpack this report Bongiwe Zwane spoke to Zanele Mocumi, the Sector Specialist for Social Infrastructure at the PIC and the author of the paper as well as Professor Wayne Hugo, lecturer and researcher in the school of Education and development at the University of Kwa-Zulu Natal

South Africa's Constitutional Court has delivered a significant judgment tightening the requirements for constructive dismissal, confirming that employees must exhaust internal grievance procedures before resigning and claiming dismissal. Constructive dismissal happens when an employee is forced to resign due to unbearable or hostile working conditions created by the employer. Although it is the employee who formally resigns, the law treats it as dismissal by the employer.  According to experts in the employment law practice at commercial law firm Cliffe Dekker Hofmeyr (CDH), the Court's determination clarifies that claiming constructive dismissal is a matter of last resort and should not be for the taking AND adds that that informal complaints alone are not enough. Bongiwe Zwane caught up with Lee Masuku, Senior Associate in Employment Law at law firm Cliffe Dekker Hofmeyr
