By on October 01, 2018

This booklet was designed for informal workers (especially street vendors and waste pickers) who work in public space in South Africa. It provides an introduction to administrative law, as a tool that workers can use to challenge discriminatory actions and decisions by municipal officials. Use this book to learn about your rights and remedies, whether you are a street vendor, waste picker, or another worker who operates in a municipal space. The book can also be used by organizers as a resource for workers’ education.
