In the following day, Thandi who has not recieved a helmet since she started working at GB Plarics has enquired with the shopsteward that she needs the safety gear but Sandile who is their shopsteward has been telling her that he is working on it.
Good morning Sir.I don't know if you remember that I came to you asking about safety gears which we haven't gotten since our last conversation regarding that.
Good morning Thandi. I do remember yes and I have been to management to remind them but there hasn't been good feed back from them so I am waiting on management.
Thandi reminds Sandile once again what her rights as a worker and the rest of her fellow workers are. which are ;According to S(14) of the Act, the overall duty of the employer is ‘to provide and maintain, as far as is reasonably practicable, a working environment that is safe and without risk to the health and safety of employees’ Sandile nods but looking a bit concerned and lets Thandi go.
Please see that we receive these Sir because I already have a pending because I wasn't dressed safe for work.
Yes Thandi, I will make sure it doesn't happen again.
occupational Health and safety 9Act 85 ) of 1993protection of employees against haxards in the workplace.to providefor the health and safety of persons at work and for the health and safety ofpersons in connection with the use of plant and machinery;
Ishould go to management and take to them that we could have more problems should they not deliver.
Thandi and the rest of the workers are gathered at the reception and Thandi is giving them an update regarding her meeting with Sandile. The stuff is furious because management is not attending to their needs for their safety within the workplace. they encourage each other to do something about it so that they're attended to.
4 stuff members agree to go to Sandile's office and ask him to bring in their union representative and organise a meeting with management and Sandile present so that they can present their enquiry that has not been taken into consideration at all even though there has been injuries regardless.
Good day sir. we are aware that Thandi has spoken to you regarding safety gears but we just want to ensure that you understand that our jobs and safety depends on these.
Definitely! I will press on them so that you have everything before the end of the week.
The employees go through a list of what has been done wrong at GB Plastics and say that they have overlooked all of that for instance; They have not had access to safety gears which means The occupational health and safety act and regulations has been ignored by management.Health and safety rules and procedures of the workplace have equally been ignored.
But, we also want to be present when our enquiry is being presented with our representative present.
Thank you for bringing that to me once again
