Karoo Workers Trade Union Enforcing Labour Law in all workplaces nationally
Supporting and empowering employees

17/11/2025

Greetings Workers of the Central Karoo.

Due to endless struggles to get a constitution passed and the mounting oppression of workers in the central karoo I have made a decision of working with a well know union to bring about change in the workplaces in Beaufort West and Central Karoo.

Announcement to be made during the first week of December 2025.

Did you know?
Any individual can represent an employee at the CCMA.
CCMA Rule 25 provides for an application to be submitted, carefully explaining the reasons why such representation is needed.
For the Commissioner to consider such representation, the following factors are important:
1. Public interest
2. Complexity of the case
3. Legal matters of the case
4. Compatibility of the parties
The Commissioner will make a ruling; however, ensure the process is handled in accordance with CCMA Rule 31.
Note that any party making use of Rule 25, who is not a legal professional, is not allowed to charge any fee for such services.
If any employee is part of a registered trade union, a Rule 25 application is not necessary.
Trade unions and employer organisations have an automatic right to represent at the CCMA.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.
SOON Karoo Workers Trade Union WILL MAKE A VERY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT.

Public Notice

Dear Members and potential members, please refrain from taking Labour Law advice from Health professionals.
Each to it's own however the common goal is to help people.

It's sad to hear our members being told to resign from work because of OHS ACT violations at their place of employment. It's unethical at best.

Members please be wise, decern correctly.

Volgens Arbeidswet 66 van 1995 afdeling 4 het elke werker die reg om
1. n Unie te vorm of
2. om by n Unie aan te sluit.

Dit is deesdae n algemene prakties waar werkgewers en groot maatskappye die werkers dreig om nie by n Unie van hul keuse aan te sluit nie. Hier in Sentraal Karoo work werkers teleurgestel deur hul bestaande Unies wat in basiese dinge hul lede nie verteenwoordig nie.
Alhoewel pligstetroue plaaslike verteenwoordegers hul beste probeer, word hulle nie vanaf hul hoofkantore ondersteun nie. Ons roep uit na hierdie verteenwoordigers en se kom sluit aan by n Unie wat jou nie net gaan ondersteun nie maar ook tenvolle gaan toerus. jou lede verdien beter.

Hoe is dit moontlik dat n werker n waarskuwing teken vir swak diens gelewer indien n klient weier om n R2 donasie te maak of as n rewards kaart nie ge swipe word by elke transaksie nie.?

Werkers werk onder bestuurders wat die werksplek ondraaglik maak dag vir dag. Werkers is klaar emotioneel en vreesbevange die oomblik hulle die werksplek betree. My vraag is WAT DOEN DIE UNIE OMTRENT DIE DINGE?

Kom sluit aan by n Unie wat nie n ekstra tak van bestuur is nie. N Unie wat kan veg vir jou regte en wat weet hoe om dit te doen.
Dit is tyd om Beaufort Wes se middelklas werker ten minste te bring by n verdiende salaris volgens wet en te verseker dat daar n gesonde en veilige werksomgewing geskep word.

Kom sluit aan by die unie wat weet hoe en nie n bang haar op die kop het nie.
