i have been issued with a retrenchment letter (189)
I have been a contract/vendor for said company for 8 years and now they are terminating my services they say due to financial issue. I am the only one being retrenched. I want to know what my rights are?
thanks

Hello. The Labour Relations Act governs the procedure to be followed in cases of retrenchment. For want of space to go through all the detail please go to this link, which is self explanatory. All the best. http://www.labour.gov.za/DOL/legislation/acts/basic-guides/basic-guide-to-retrenchment
