The paper considers the likely impact of the emerging forces in the world of work and a future
governance landscape that will promote social justice, economic development and decent work for
all. It begins by outlining the importance and characteristics of accountable and responsive
governance; followed by a consideration of the challenges we are likely to confront in South Africa.
Thereafter it discusses some of the institutions of public and private governance in South Africa and
suggests ways in which their efficiency and effectiveness may be improved to meet the demands of
the future and ensure that governance institutions and labour market policies are ‘fit for purpose’. [View resource]
