Introduction

This CPD will help small business owners, managers, and employees understand the Basic Conditions of Employment Act (BCEA) and how it affects their workplace. Many businesses unintentionally break the law because they don’t fully understand their obligations. Employees also sometimes misuse the Act, creating unnecessary tension. By learning the key aspects of the BCEA, attendees can ensure fair and legal employment practices, avoid penalties, and build better employer-employee relationships.
