LACO vs Business: Labor War in KZN | Johannesburg News
Description
LACO’s aggressive campaign against businesses in KwaZulu-Natal is sparking controversy, with accusations of worker exploitation met by fierce backlash from the business community. While LACO claims to have helped thousands find jobs, critics like Melanie Veness call them vigilantes operating outside the law, warning of extortion and disruption. Veness urges businesses to use official channels like the CCMA, not LACO, to resolve labor disputes, stressing that such actions risk damaging the economy and deterring investment — ultimately costing jobs.
