Part IV – Wages regulation orders

11. Power to fix wages and conditions of employment

(1)Subject to subsections (2) and (3), a council may submit to the Minister wages regulation proposals as to the minimum wage which should be paid and the conditions of employment which should be applied to all or any of the employees in relation to whom the council operates.
(2)Before submitting any wages regulation proposals to the Minister, a council shall make such investigations as it thinks fit and shall publish in the Gazette and in a newspaper published in Swaziland a notice of the intention to submit proposals stating the place where copies of the proposals may be obtained and the period, not being less than thirty days, within which written representations with respect to the proposals may be sent to the council.
(3)The council shall consider any such written representations made to it within the set period and may make such further inquiries as it considers necessary and may then submit the proposals to the Minister, either with or without amendment having regard to those representations.
(4)If wages regulation proposals have been submitted to the Minister, he may either—
(a)make a wages regulation order, giving effect, as from such date as is specified in the order, to the proposals, subject to such modifications which do not, in his opinion, effect important changes in the character of the proposals as published by the wages council under subsection (2); or
(b)refer the proposals back once to the wages council, together with such amendments as he thinks fit, whereupon the wages council shall consider the amended proposals, and thereafter within thirty days of such reference, shall re-submit the amended proposals, with such observations as it thinks fit.
[Amended K.O-I-C. 33/1974; Replaced A.10/1981]
(5)Where the Minister receives any wages regulation proposals which have been resubmitted to him under paragraph (b) of subsection (4), he shall, after giving such consideration to the observations made by the council as he deems necessary, make a wages regulation order, giving effect to the proposals as from such date as is specified in the order.[Amended K.O-I-C. 33/1974; K.O-I-C. 17/1978; Replaced A.10/1981]
(6)The date to be specified in accordance with subsection (5) shall be a date subsequent to the date of the wages regulation order, and where the date so specified does not correspond with the beginning of the period for which wages are paid the order shall, in respect of any employee affected, become operative from the beginning of the next such period following the date specified in the order.
(7)Any wages regulation proposals and any wages regulation order may make different provisions for different cases and may also contain provision for the amendment or revocation of previous wages regulation orders.

12. Saving as to rights conferred by other laws

No order made under section (5) or (11) shall have effect so as to prejudice any rights touching conditions of employment, holidays or remunerations conferred upon any worker by or under the provisions of any other law.

13. Agreement and arbitration awards

If the Minister is satisfied that a collective agreement relating to wages or conditions of employment has been made which covers substantially the greater proportion of the employers and the employees in an industry, he may make an order regulating wages or conditions in accordance with that agreement and cause such order to be published in the Gazette and in a newspaper published in Swaziland, and from the date specified in the order, the order shall take effect in relation to all the employers and the employees in that industry as though it had been a wages regulation order made as a result of wages council proposals made by a wages council.[Replaced A.10/1981]

14. Benefits provided by the employer

(1)Subject to this section, any reference in this Act to wages shall be construed as a reference to the amount obtained or to be obtained in cash by the employee from his employer, clear of all deductions, except those lawfully made for the purpose of a contribution to the Swaziland National Provident Fund, or any other provident fund or pension scheme approved by the Labour Commissioner.[Amended A.10/1981]
(2)Notwithstanding subsection (1), wages regulation proposals and wages regulation orders may contain provisions authorizing specified benefits or advantages, being benefits or advantages provided by the employer or by some other person under arrangement with the employer in pursuance of the terms and conditions of any legal or contractual obligation imposed upon the employer, and not being benefits or advantages the provision of which is illegal by virtue of any other law, to be reckoned as payment of wages by the employer in lieu of payment in cash and defining the value at which any such benefits or advantages are to be reckoned.

15. Effect and enforcement of wages regulation orders

(1)If a contract between an employee to whom a wages regulation order applies and his employer provides for the payment of a lesser wage than the statutory minimum wage or does not provide for the conditions of employment prescribed in the wages regulation order, the contract shall have effect as if there were substituted, for such lesser wage, the statutory minimum wage and as if there were inserted in the contract such prescribed conditions of employment, as the case may be.
(2)An employer who fails to pay to an employee, to whom a wages regulation order applies, at least the statutory minimum wage or fails to provide such employee with the conditions of employment prescribed in the order, shall be guilty of an offence and liable on conviction, to a fine not exceeding one hundred emalangeni for each such offence, and if the employer or any other person charged as the person to whose act or default the offence was due has been found guilty of an offence under this section consisting of a failure to pay at least the statutory minimum wage, the court shall order the employer to pay such sum as is found by the court to represent the difference between the amount which ought to have been paid to the employee by wages if the provisions of the wages regulation order had been complied with and the amount actually so paid.
(3)If proceedings are brought under this section in respect of an offence consisting of failure to pay at least the statutory minimum wage then, after notice so to do has been served with the summons, warrant or complaint—
(a)evidence may, on the employer or any other person charged to whose act or default the offence was due having been found guilty of the offence, be given of any like contravention on the part of the employer or such other person in respect of any period during the twelve months immediately preceding the date of the offence; and,
(b)on proof of the failure, the court shall order the employer to pay such sum as is found by the court to represent the difference between the amount which is ought to have been paid by the employer, during such period, to any employee by way of wages if the provisions of this Act had been complied with and the amount actually so paid.
(4)The power given by this section for the recovery of sums due from an employer to an employee shall be in addition to, and not in derogation of, any right to recover such sums by civil proceedings:Provided that no person shall be liable to pay twice in respect of the same cause of action.

16. Permits to infirm and incapacitated persons

If the Labour Commissioner is satisfied that any person, employed or desiring to be employed in such circumstances that a wages regulation order applies or will apply to him, is affected by any infirmity or physical injury or disablement, the Labour Commissioner may, if he thinks fit, issue to that person, subject to such terms, if any, as he may determine, a permit exempting the employer of the person from the provisions of this Act relating to the payment of the statutory minimum wage or observance of conditions of employment and, while the permit is in force, the employer is not liable to any penalty for paying wages to the person employed at a rate less than the statutory minimum wage or failing to observe those conditions so long as any terms determined by the Labour Commissioner on the grant of the permit are complied with.

17. Prohibition of premiums

(1)If an employee to whom a wages regulation order applies is an apprentice or learner, it shall not be lawful for his employer to receive directly or indirectly from him, or on his behalf or on his account, any payment by way of premium:Provided that nothing in this subsection shall apply to any such payment duly made in pursuance of any valid instrument of apprenticeship.
(2)An employer who contravenes this section shall be guilty of an offence and liable on conviction in respect of each offence, to a fine of fifty emalangeni, and the court may, in addition to imposing a fine, order him to repay to the employee, or other person by whom the payment was made, the sum improperly received by way of premium.

18. Records and notices

(1)The employer of any employees to whom a wages regulation order applies shall keep in English such records as may be prescribed or, if not prescribed, as are necessary to show whether or not the provisions of this Act are being complied with in respect of those employees and the records shall be retained by the employer for two years.
(2)When a wages regulation order is published in the Gazette, the Labour Commissioner shall forthwith prepare notices in the siSwati and English languages setting out full details of the order and such matters as may be prescribed.[Amended A.3/1969]
(3)Such employer shall, not later than one month after publication of the wages regulation order in the Gazette, obtain from the Labour Commissioner such number of the notices referred to in subsection (2) as will enable him adequately to comply with subsection (4).[Added A.3/1969]
(4)On receiving the notices from the Labour Commissioner, the employer shall so display them that his employees, when at work, can at all times readily inform themselves of the contents.[Added A.3/1969]
(5)An employer who fails to comply with any of the requirements of this section shall be guilty of an offence and liable, on conviction, to a fine not exceeding one hundred emalangeni.

19. Criminal liability of superior employer and special defence open to employer

(1)If the employer of any employee is himself in the employment of some other person and such employee is employed on the premises and in connection with the business of that other person, such other person shall, for the purposes of this Act, be deemed to be the employer of such employee jointly with the immediate employer.
(2)If an employer is charged with an offence under this Act he is entitled, on giving to the prosecution not less than three day’s notice in writing of his intention, to have any other person, to whose act or default he alleges that the offence in question was due, brought before the court at the time appointed for the hearing of the charge; and if, after the commission of the offence has been proved, the employer proves that the offence was due to the act or the default of such other person, such other person may be convicted of the offence, and, if the employer further proves that he has used all due diligence to secure that this Act, and any relevant regulation or order made thereunder are complied with, he shall be acquitted of the offence.
(3)If a defendant seeks to avail himself of the provisions of subsection (2)—
(a)the prosecution, as well as the person to whom the defendant alleges to have committed the offence, shall have the right to cross-examine him if he gives evidence and any witnesses called by him in support of his defence, and to call rebutting evidence, and
(b)the court may make such order as it thinks fit for the payment of costs, by any party to the proceedings, to any other party thereto.
(4)If it appears to an authorized officer that an offence has been committed in respect of which proceedings might be taken under this Act against an employer, and the authorized officer is reasonably satisfied that the offence of which complaint is made was due to an act or default of some other person and that the employer could establish a defence under subsection (2), the authorized officer may cause proceedings to be taken against the other person without first causing proceedings to be taken against the employer.
(5)In proceedings so taken, the defendant may be charged with and, on proof that the offence was due to his act or default, be convicted of the offence with which the employer might have been charged.
