PUBLIC LECTURE: Labour in the Boardroom?

The Southern Centre for Inequality Studies presents a PUBLIC LECTURE: "Labour in the Boardroom?"

Renewed commitment to worker participation in enterprise has placed the question of worker directors back on the policy agenda. Join us for an insightful discussion about the impact of worker directors, and an analysis of why, despite the introduction of co-determination at the plant level through workplace forums, labour has largely ignored the right to trigger workplace forums.

Presenters:  Prof. Dr. Manfred Wannöffel - Director of the Office for Cooperation between Ruhr-Universität Bochum and the German Metalworkers’ Union (IG Metall). Christine Bischoff and Arabo Ewinyu - Wits City Institute and Wits University, SCIS

Respondents:  Ruth Ntlokotse - Second Deputy President, NUMSA 
Peter Leon - Partner and Africa Co-chair: Herbert Smith Freehills LLP

Date: Tuesday, 24 March 2020
Time: 17:30 – 21:00
Venue: Investec Room, Parktown Management  Campus, 2 St David’s Place, Parktown
