Welcome to the website of the Institute for Constitutional and Labour Law Studies. This website is your source of information on constitutional and labour law matters.
The Institute is an initiative of Solidarity. It came into being in February 2008 and stems from a realisation that an entity should be established to address specific constitutional and labour law matters, which will be discussed in greater detail later, in the South African society.

The Human Rights Charter of our Constitution describes the entrenched rights of every citizen of South Africa. Although the objectives of the Constitution are pure, it soon became clear in the new dispensation that the entrenched rights have to be cultivated and unlocked to give validity to it. The undermining of constitutional rights is becoming increasingly apparent every day and it is important to us that this problem should be dealt with.
