The Namibian Labour Act makes provision for the exclusion of Legal Practitioners whom are defined in terms of the Legal Practitioners Act, 1995 (Act No. 15 of 1995). I have observed that foreign unemployed qualified and registered practitioners setup consultancy Companies in Namibia and affiliate themselves with employer Organisations in order to get access to the dispute resolution Platform. Is this permissible? Does this obscure the intention of the introduced dispute resolution system in Namibia?
I regard the training through which arbitrators went needs a revision by broadening the course content to include interpretation and application of laws other than labour law. In some cases Arbitration does not seem to understand case-law which makes it difficult to argue your case in-front of a person who has limited exposure.
Dispute resolution platform (Conciliation and Arbitration) is nowadays been attended just for formality obviously with the intention to against what the arbitrator obviously has overlooked. Judging on a amount of cases appealed the afore-mentioned cannot be disputed.
Please note there is a different platform on which decisions are taken on "Beyond reasonable doubt"!!!

Hi, today I had to attend a conciliation hearing. Everything was against the basic principle of fairness. Will take time to write it all down, but what recourse do I have? Some suggested Ombudsman, Legal Assustance centre, the head of the Labour Commission or who else?
The provision of the Constituion was made laughable.
Thanks and regards
