Power To Workers (‘PTW’), is a majority trade union representing workers at Genuine
Platinum (Pty) Ltd (‘GP’). In 2021, PTW and GP concluded a collective agreement (threshold
agreement) which set the level of representation to be met by trade unions which seek to
acquire organisational rights within GP. Platinum Employees Association (‘PEA’), is one of
the minority trade unions which on a number of occasions made attempts to acquire
organisational rights within GP, without success.
Discuss whether the threshold agreement can be disregarded by a CCMA commissioner in
favor of PEA, if there is an organisational rights dispute between PEA and GP.
