Common questions

How quickly should an unfair dismissal dispute usually be referred to the CCMA?
CCMA guidance states that unfair dismissal disputes generally need to be referred within 30 days of dismissal or the final internal appeal outcome, if that is later.
Do employers and employees both need preparation for CCMA proceedings?
Yes. Documents, witnesses, timelines and a clear chronology can all affect how the matter is presented and managed.
