Abstract
This study is encouraged by the fact that the field of labour law has drastically changed after enactment of
amendments in various labour legislation such as Employment Equity Act, Basic Conditions of Employment
Act and Labour Relations Act during 2013 and 2014. These changes have compelled employers to review
their policies in line with the amendments of these Acts. This study will however focus on the impact of the
newly introduced section 198 to the Labour Relations Act 66 of 1995. The study will specifically focus on the
continued use of fixed-term contracts of employment within the Technical and Vocational Education and
Training (TVET) Sector of South Africa.
