  8. PROVINCIAL STATUS OF JE

  9. SOLUTION • In view of the above: • At the SALGA HR Conference of September 2010 it was resolved that JE be concluded by the employer alone. • Municipal Managers to take responsibility in line with the Systems Act

  10. Sensibility of entering into new Agreement • SALGA obtained a legal opinion on whether it is obliged to negotiate on JE, in view of the HR Conference Resolution • Legal opinion to effect that SALGA is obliged to negotiate but no obligation to agree. • As a consideration it appears that SALGA will not be in a position to unilaterally publish TASK results as the Wage Curve Collective Agreement stipulates in terms of Clause 4.1.3 that “ employees to receive new wage rates as a result of their jobs being evaluated, as per the TASK Job Evaluation System and published by the SALGBC” • However in the face of the trade unions’ currently disputing the validity of the wage curve collective agreement this obstacle may fall away.

  11. SALGA EFFORTS TOWARDS UNIFORMITY • Taking the tone of the HR Conference resolutions, SALGA geared itself to provide municipalities with the necessary tools to ensure uniformity in terms of Job Evaluation • A Task Team consisting of SALGA and municipal officials as TASK experts drafted a Job Evaluation Guideline policy document. • This policy was communicated to all municipalities for inputs that was further incorporated in the document and is ready for implementation

  12. HRM Working Group 3 December 2010 • Given the obligation to negotiate per the advice from Counsel: • HRMWG resolved that SALGA explore negotiations with trade unions to seek possible areas of agreement and use that to obtain a proper mandate from municipalities. • If no agreement is possible, the duty to negotiate will have been met and Conference resolution can then be implemented.

  13. EXPLORATORY TALKS • Summary of deliberations on 14 December 2010 BC:

  17. PROCESS TO CLOSURE • Final offer tabled at NEC to get approval of principles and to give delegation to HRMWG for closure. • SALGA to engage municipalities before end of February 2011 to obtain a mandate • Final offer tabled at Bargaining Committee • Trade unions to accept or reject offer • In case unions reject: • SALGA to give notice to trade unions and implement unilaterally

  18. MGCBS EFFECT OF APPROACH TOWARDS MUTUAL GAIN COLLECTIVE BARGAININGSTRATEGY (MGCBS) • SALGA showed commitment towards joint decision making in accommodating the unions in the JEU’s as well as NAC structures in line with MGCBS. • All parties in favour of expeditious process • Common ground reached on most matters • Uncertainty and suspicion that SAMWU position be that of individual rather than organisation- thus compromise MGCBS • At plant level both unions eager to see conclusion and agreeable on same basis as per SALGA proposals.
