JOHANNESBURG - The Employment and Labour Department is evaluating Cartrack's policies. This comes after the death of an employee in the company's bathroom in June.
It is alleged that 29-year-old Gcina Dhladhla collapsed at the company's Rosebank office in Johannesburg. According to reports, she had told her supervisor that she was feeling unwell and was denied sick leave.
Labour Minister Nomakhosazana Meth, along with inspectors, visited the company to check on their progress.
Dhladhla's death sparked widespread public outrage and demands for accountability. Former employees spoke out anonymously on social media about a 'toxic' work environment.
The department's evaluation puts Cartrack's emergency response and health policies under the microscope.
While investigators scrutinise these corporate mechanisms, the official inquiry remains open to establish if any safety laws are broken.
Cartrack management maintains that all relevant protocols were followed on the day of Dhladhla's death.
Meth has urged employees to report any form of misconduct and non-compliance by employers.
Cartrack management believes a lot has improved in terms of the work environment since inspectors were deployed.
