    CAN EMPLOYERS LEGALLY REDUCE THE PAY OF EMPLOYEES WORKING FULL TIME?
    Some businesses that are suffering losses due to reduced purchases of products or services resulting from the Covid 19 lockdown are unilaterally cutting the pay of staff members who are working full time. That is, these pay cuts are implemented neither as a result of bilateral agreements with staff nor as an agreed means of avoiding retrenchments arrived at via consultations under the auspices of section 189 of the LRA. Are employers entitled to make such unilateral pay cuts where the employees are working full time?
