“Sick leave season” is still in full swing and

“Sick leave season” is still in full swing and many employers will be struggling with high levels of absenteeism.

There’s no problem, of course, with genuinely ill staff staying at home to recover – no one wants them at work spreading their germs around or damaging their health! 🤒🚑 But what if you suspect malingering?

“Divorce is the one human tragedy that reduces everything to cash.” (Rita Mae Brown) 💔💵

How will the new “Three-Pot Retirement System” (often referred to as a “Two-Pot System”) affect financial arrangements on divorce? Retirement savings can amount to a significant portion of a marriage’s assets, so it’s important to understand the implications of the new system.

Your smartphone lets you record just about anything, anywhere, and at any time. Your laptop and other devices can automatically record online meetings. Technology enabling voice and/or video recording is all-pervasive, providing us all with a powerful tool for keeping accurate records, resolving disputes, and gathering evidence.

But it’s crucial to understand when it’s legal to start recording – and when it’s not… Whether you’re talking face-to-face, over the phone, or via digital platforms like WhatsApp, Zoom, Slack, or Teams.

“From small mistakes come great catastrophes.” (Justin Cronin) 📝💥

We’ve all seen how even the smallest mistake can have huge consequences down the line. A recent High Court spat between siblings over a poorly-drafted will confirms once again that when it comes to important documents (and it doesn’t get more important than your will!), every word counts.

📢 Attention, Foreign Firms Operating in Lesotho

📢 Attention, Foreign Firms Operating in Lesotho! 🇱🇸

The Lesotho Revenue Authority (RSL) has introduced new customs clearing requirements effective from 1 September 2024. If you're exporting to Lesotho, you must now include an "Agent Code" on all business documents, such as invoices and credit notes. This unique 10-digit code is linked to your Lesotho Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) and is in addition to the standard requirements for registered Customs Clearing Agents.

In light of the above, we are in the process of developing guidelines and protocols to guarantee that foreign companies operating in Lesotho are protected and that they comply with Lesotho’s tax regulations.

Our team is here to help with:

✅ Expert advice on current and new legislation
✅ Guidance on the new customs requirements
✅ Assistance with due diligence reports for your appointed Agent
✅ Drafting and vetting of relevant contracts

Get in touch with us today to ensure you're fully prepared! 💼

🌿💼 Cannabis Policies in the Workplace: A Delicate Balancing Act

“It is declared that the [employer]’s Alcohol and Substance Abuse Policy is irrational and violates the right to privacy in section 14 of the Constitution, to the extent that it prohibits office-based employees that do not work with or within an environment that has heavy, dangerous and similar equipment, from consuming cannabis in the privacy of their homes.” (Court order, below)

A recent Labour Appeal Court (LAC) decision highlights the complexities of workplace policies regarding cannabis use and provides guidelines to employers and their employees on the intersection of individual rights and workplace policies.

Brand-New Car Giving You Nightmares? The Consumer

“What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived. It is what difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we lead” – Nelson Mandela

This Mandela Day, we brought magic and joy to the children of the Iphahamiseng Child and Youth Center for orphaned children living with HIV. The kids were thrilled with stationery, games and yummy peanut butter jelly sandwiches. They danced their hearts out. We’re honoured to support them and make a difference in our community, nurturing and empowering the next generation.

The day was both humbling and powerful — a reminder of how important it is to make time to give back, and of immersing ourselves in the experience, on the ground. It is hard to see such poverty up close, but Mandela and Mama Sanny remind us of just how much one person can do to tangibly uplift others.

Together, we can make a difference!

🏠💸 Home Buyer loses R5.5m in Phishing Scam – Don’t Make the Same Mistake

Cybercriminals absolutely love targeting property transactions because they provide the perfect mix of large money deposits, heavy reliance on email communication from trusted parties like attorneys, banks, and estate agencies, and deadlines, creating a sense of urgency and lack of attention to detail.

Lesotho Medicines and Medical Devices Control Auth

Lesotho Medicines and Medical Devices Control Authority Act 2023 🏥

Lesotho is among 12 African countries that adopted and implemented the African Union Model Law on Medical Products Regulation. The law was endorsed to improve access to quality, safe drugs and as well as fight the circulation of fake medical products on the continent. Such unregulated medicines resulted in the use of ineffective, poor quality and harmful medicines which lead to therapeutic failure, exacerbation of diseases, resistance to medicines and sometimes deaths. Lesotho has embraced and domesticated the AU Model Law by introducing the Medicines and Medical Devices Control Authority Act 2023.

The New Cannabis Act: Here’s What You Will and W

The New Cannabis Act: Here’s What You Will and Won’t Be Allowed to Do

Much excitement has greeted the signing into law of the Cannabis for Private Purposes Act, which will formally regulate the cultivation, possession, and use of cannabis by adults in a private setting and, says the Presidency, lays the groundwork for regulatory reforms “to allow for the industrialisation of the cannabis sector.”

Although the new Act has been widely reported in the media as though it is already in force, this is not correct – it will only come into effect when its commencement date is gazetted. It is not clear at the date of writing when we can expect this to happen, but it could be a lengthy process. Until then, the rather vague parameters for private and personal use, possession and cultivation set by the Constitutional Court in 2018 will presumably remain in place.

Contracting with Trusts – Is a Majority Resoluti

Contracting with Trusts – Is a Majority Resolution Valid?

“Externally, trustees cannot disagree. In the external sphere the Trust functions by virtue of its resolutions, which have to be supported by the full complement of the Trust body.”

A recent Supreme Court of Appeal (SCA) judgment provides yet another reminder to tread carefully when contracting with trusts. Your agreements with a trust will be invalid and unenforceable if the trustees acting for the trust weren’t properly authorised to bind the trust. But must trustee resolutions always be taken unanimously by all of the appointed trustees to be valid, or will a majority decision ever suffice? The SCA addressed that question in the context of a trust seeking to escape from a suretyship which had not been unanimously agreed to and signed by all three trustees acting jointly.
