ER / HR Forum:
INCONSISTENCY IN MISCONDUCT DISMISSALS & LEVERAGING AI IN ER AND EMPLOYMENT LAW
– ARE YOU UP TO SPEED?

Recent Labour Court judgments have sharpened the application of the parity principle in disciplinary matters, while Artificial Intelligence is rapidly transforming ER practice. This session delivers clear, practical guidance on both critical areas every employment law and employee relations practitioner needs.

online ER / HR Forum

DATE: 18 June 2026

TIME: 16:00 – 17:00

PRICE: Free

Here’s what we’ll be covering:

  • Inconsistency in Misconduct Matters: Lessons from the Labour Court
    Drawing on two key judgments — City of Cape Town v SAMWU obo Mlungwana (contemporaneous inconsistency and the “zero tolerance” policy) and Buthelezi & Others v Rand Water (distinguishable misconduct and limits of the parity principle). We examine when selective discipline renders a dismissal substantively unfair, when differentiation is justifiable, and how courts weigh misconduct seriousness, group collusion and context. 
  • How to Integrate AI with ER and Employment Law Advice: Practical Applications, Benefits, Risks and Recommendations

    Explore practical ways to integrate AI into ER and employment law practice, from rapid case research and drafting disciplinary charges/notices to policy development and risk analysis. We’ll cover the significant efficiency and consistency benefits, key risks (including hallucinations, bias, data privacy and accountability), and practical recommendations for responsible, defensible use.
