Book Launch Webinar: Teachers' Right to Strike

In celebration of Wits University’s centenary, CDH, Juta and the School of Law hosted a webinar on the book launch of Dr. Mohamed Alli Chicktay’s book, Teachers' Right to Strike: A comparative study of ILO Standards and South African Law.

31 Oct 2022 1 min read Webinar Webinar

Prior to 1994 teachers were denied a meaningful Right to strike. This changed in 1994 when South Africa adopted a Bill of Rights. In his book, published by Juta, Chicktay critically discusses whether the LRA conforms to ILO standards, particularly in respect to teacher strikes. Chicktay then develops a model that adequately balances a teacher’s right to strike and students’ rights to education in compliance with ILO standards and the South African Constitution.

Authentication of documents: Back to basics

If you have, then you have no doubt experienced the frustration of having same signed or executed only to find out later that the documents are not legally valid for use in the relevant country. We live in an era where many South Africans emigrate or conduct business abroad and the necessity for the correct authentication, legalisation or apostille of documents becomes imperative to avoid any delays.
