ELI5— what this means for you
A learnership agreement must specify duration (max 3 months), wages (at least 75% of minimum wage), and a commitment to hire the learner as a regular employee upon completion. If the employer fires the learner within 2 months without cause, the learner becomes regular.
Key point
Fired from learnership in the first 2 months without cause? You may already be a regular employee.
