Employment equity and decent work will support economic growth in South Africa
--:--
GUEST - Dr Khwezi Mabasa - Economic and Social Policy Researcher.
On KayaBiz with Gugulethu Mfuphi, Dr. Khwezi Mabasa unpacked the critical role of employment equity and decent work in driving South Africa’s economic growth. Drawing on both constitutional mandates and global standards, Dr. Mabasa emphasized the need for inclusive labour policies that go beyond ideological biases. He critiqued free-market perspectives particularly those of the DA, the Free Market Foundation, and the Institute of Race Relations arguing that their stance on labour market "rigidity" is based on flawed assumptions.
