DOWNLOAD EBOOKUnderstanding the Employment Equity Act deals with one of the most innovative instruments of post-apartheid labour market regulation, the Employment Equity Act, 1998 (EEA). The implicit aim of the EEA is not only to redress the imbalances created by apartheid, it also seeks to combat unfair discrimination and provide a framework for equal opportunity in employment. This book contains a systematic, accessible commentary on the EEA. The key provisions of the Act are systematically covered, with key point summaries and frequently asked questions (FAQs) to aid understanding. Important areas such as definitions, purposes, interpretation, application, unfair discrimination, affirmation action, monitoring and enforcement are covered. It also systematically sets out key provisions and leading cases
