Welcome to the National Textile Bargaining Council
The
Labour Relations Act (LRA) makes provision for the setting up of
bargaining councils for each of the major sectors in South Africa. The
bargaining councils consist of representatives from the major unions
and employer groups within each of the sectors and their main purpose
is to reach consensus on terms and conditions of their specific
industries. The terms and conditions agreed on by the councils are
contained in a collective or main agreement.
The
Main Agreement allows each sector to develop - through consensus
between labour and employers - terms and conditions that are
appropriate to that sector.
The
LRA contains certain guidelines and provisions for the setting up of a
bargaining council. The unions and employer groups in the council
should respectively represent the majority of workers and employers in
the sector.
Once a
collective agreement has been agreed on, it is gazetted by the Minister
of Labour. Its terms then extend to all of the workers and employers in
the sector, including those who are not members of the union/s or
employer group/s represented on the bargaining council.
