- Title
- Social equity and job creation - The key to a stable future
- Date
- 1996-03-uu
- Description
- A comprehensive 1996 policy framework and economic vision released by organized labor (COSATU, NACTU, and FEDSAL). It critiques the "jobless growth" of the early transition and the extreme income inequality where the richest 10% earn over half the national income. The document advocates for a "social equity" model involving the redistribution of wealth, a "floor of rights" for workers, and an active role for the state in the economy, explicitly challenging the SA Foundation’s "neo-liberal" prescriptions.
