Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration (CCMA)

About

The Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration (CCMA) is a statutory body established in terms of Section 112 of the Labour Relations Act 66 of 1995 [as amended] (LRA) and draws its legislative mandate principally from Section 23 of the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa (1996) and the LRA. The CCMA, as a national public entity in terms of Schedule 3A of the Public Finance Management Act (PFMA), is an independent body that neither belongs nor is affiliated with any political party, trade union or business. The CCMA derives its mandate from the purpose of the LRA, which is to advance economic development, social justice, labour peace and the democratisation of the workplace.
