A New Attack on Labour Rights

The Ministry of Employment and Labour has released for public comment the new Draft Code on Good Practice on Dismissal (the new Draft Code). The new Draft Code is intending to replace the existing Code on Good Practice. Whilst a Code on Good Practice does not override existing legislation and case law, it nevertheless provides a guideline to and an elaboration of existing labour law jurisprudence. There are some positive changes for workers, but on the whole the Draft Code is pro-employer and codifies many of the conservative court judgments relating to dismissals.
