11 POPIA Questions to Ask Yourself Before 30 June 2021
|
|
By midnight on 30 June 2021 you must be fully compliant with the Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA) if you in any way process any personal information relating to a “data subject”. Very few businesses and organisations will fall outside that net, and even fewer will fall into any of the exemptions. The risks of non-compliance are substantial.
By way of a last-minute recap we suggest eleven important questions you should be asking yourself and your business well before deadline.
We end off with a note for the administrators of Community Schemes (Bodies Corporate and Homeowners Associations).

Dismissed: The Butcher Who Went to Work With COVID-19
|
|
In these times of deadly pandemic, both employees and their employers need to observe all workplace safety protocols to the letter. As the Labour Court recently pointed out, having fancy COVID-19 policies in place is meaningless if they aren’t strictly observed by everyone, and all the time.
The Court was dealing with the case of an Assistant Butchery Manager who reported for duty on three days after testing positive for the coronavirus, putting his fellow employees, customers, and anyone else unlucky enough to come into contact with him at serious risk. His dismissal was held by the Court to be substantively fair and confirmed. We discuss the facts, and the reasons for that outcome.

Can You Change Your Marital Regime After Marriage?
|
|
Wedding bells are ringing, and the legal niceties of how the marriage will affect your “matrimonial property system” may not be high on your priority list. They should be – your choice of marital regime now is critical. You don’t want for example to find that you can’t get a mortgage bond or have your estate sequestrated because of your spouse’s debts, a danger if you end up married in community of property.
We recap briefly on the three choices available to you, stress once again the necessity of choosing before you marry, and explore the possibility of changing your marital regime after marriage if you got it wrong before.
