Academic Research and Theses:   2024   -   By Nthabiseng Mohlakoana, Alboricah Rathupetsane, Boitumelo Malope & Merin Jacob

This paper aims to bring some focus to the subject of decent work as per the International Labour Organisation’s definition and highlights the emerging themes in the South African energy sector. The research shows that, although the country is on the path to decarbonisation, a clear definition of a job and decent work is needed, and it is imperative to ensure that this industry has the capacity to provide the necessary skills and training to its new workforce and provide fair and just working conditions that would lead to decent work.
