The hospitality sector has been granted an urgent interdict to halt the implementation of new labour rules amid an ongoing collective agreement fight.
The Federated Hospitality Association of South Africa (Fedhasa) and the Restaurant Collective have successfully stopped the new bargaining council rules from taking effect until the legal matter is heard in court.
Restaurants owners and food outlets were shocked last month when the Labour Department unilaterally extended the bargaining councilâs collective agreement to include employers who were not previously part of the council.
