Labour Litigation and Dispute Resolution (2nd and latest edition)

 Labour Litigation and Dispute Resolution is a comprehensive exposition of practice and procedure in the various forums charged with the responsibility of resolving employment and labour disputes in South Africa. More than a practice manual, the book provides an overview of the nature, powers and jurisdiction of the CCMA, bargaining councils and the Labour Court, expertly guiding the reader through the jurisdictional and procedural maze. The rules of the several forums are discussed, and there are useful tips for all role players in labour litigation, arbitration, and other forms of dispute resolution. There are also separate chapters on private arbitration and alternative dispute resolution. This volume is a companion to three others (Employment Rights, Dismissal, and Collective Labour Law), which together provide a comprehensive overview of the entire body of current labour law.
