FAQ – Are Shop Stewards Only Allowed Where The Union Has Majority Status?

Section 14 of the Labour Relations Act (LRA) always provided that shop stewards are only allowed in the case of majority Unions, but this is no longer true in all cases.

Section 21(8)A of the LRA, as amended, provides that as long as it is the only Union in the workplace and no other Union has such right, they can apply to the CCMA to grant them this right even where they do not hold majority status.
