Domestic workers qualify for workplace injury compensation, watershed decision

Domestic workers qualify for workplace injury compensation, watershed decision 10 December 2020 7:25 AM National Employers’ Labour Association Albert van der Merwe explains how employers need to ensure compliance. Employers of domestic workers will need to make arrangements to comply with the recent ruling in the Constitutional Court whereby parts of the Compensation for Occupational Injuries and Diseases Act (Coida) were deemed unconstitutional as it had excluded domestic workers employed in private households from the definition of ‘employee’. The amendment is retrospective, so if a domestic employee is injured at work currently, they will be entitled to compensation. Albert van der Merwe of the National Employers’ Labour Association (NELA) speaks to Refilwe Moloto about the implications and steps employers must take to ensure compliance.
