A Practical, Legally Sound Guide for Managers & HR Professionals
When you’re considering the dismissal of an employee, the stakes are high — and the CCMA doesn’t accept “I didn’t know” as a defence. A properly chaired disciplinary enquiry isn’t just a procedural step; it’s your organisation’s legal shield.
This updated, high‑impact webinar gives you the clarity, confidence, and legal grounding you need to run enquiries that stand up to scrutiny.
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN
Angus will break down the exact responsibilities of a Chairperson and the legal principles that guide a fair, defensible process. Expect practical examples, real‑world scenarios, and clear answers to the questions employers struggle with most:
- What rights does the employee actually have?
- Must I hold a formal enquiry every time?
- What if the employee refuses to attend?
- When is legal representation allowed?
- What counts as hearsay — and can I use it?
- Can evidence obtained improperly still be admitted?
- What are mitigating vs. aggravating factors?
- Which sanctions are legally appropriate?
- By the end of this session, you’ll know how to run an enquiry that is procedurally fair, substantively sound, and defensible at the CCMA or Bargaining Council.
