Observación (CEACR) - Adopción: 1993, Publicación: 80ª reunión CIT (1993)

With reference to its previous comments regarding the need to amend the Industrial Relations Act, 1971 in light of the new Constitution, so as to provide protection against discrimination in access to employment on the basis of political opinion, the Committee notes with satisfaction that under section 129(2) of the Industrial Relations Act No. 36 of 1990 (which repeals and replaces the Industrial Relations Act, 1971), any prospective employee who has reasonable cause to believe that he has been discriminated against on the grounds of his political opinion or affiliation, may lay a complaint before the Industrial Relations Court.
