Terms of Service
Effective date: 16 July 2026
These Terms govern use of the Labour Market platform. They are a general template and do not replace advice from your own attorney.
1. Acceptance
By accessing or using Labour Market you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the platform.
2. Accounts and eligibility

- Organisational accounts may only be used by authorised representatives.
- We may suspend or terminate accounts that breach these Terms or applicable law.
3. Candidates

- You must not misrepresent qualifications or submit fraudulent documents.
- Optional paid features (for example CV package downloads) are charged as described at checkout.
4. Employers and sponsors
- Job posts must be for genuine opportunities and comply with South African labour and equality laws.
- Candidate data may only be used for legitimate recruitment or programme purposes.
- Sponsors must manage affiliated employers and programmes in good faith and in line with applicable B-BBEE and related rules.
- Add-on modules (for example talent pipeline or reference checks) require an active entitlement and may be billed on separate invoices.
5. Subscriptions, billing, and refunds
- Paid plans and add-ons are billed according to the selected interval and pricing shown at purchase.
- Proforma and tax invoices may be issued; payment may be processed via PayFast or other approved methods (including EFT where offered).

- Failure to pay may result in suspension of paid features.
6. Acceptable use
You must not:
- Harass, discriminate against, or abuse other users
- Post false, misleading, or unlawful content
- Scrape, reverse engineer, or overload the platform without permission
- Circumvent security, access controls, or billing
- Use the service for spam or illegal activity
7. Intellectual property
Labour Market branding, software, and content (excluding your own uploads) remain our property or that of our licensors. You retain ownership of materials you upload and grant us a licence to host and process them to provide the service.
8. Disclaimers
The platform is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. We do not guarantee that any candidate will be hired, that any job will be filled, or that third-party information is accurate. We are not a party to employment contracts between users unless expressly agreed in writing.
9. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by South African law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential loss, or for employment decisions made by users. Our aggregate liability arising from these Terms is limited to the fees you paid us for the service in the three months preceding the claim, except where liability cannot be limited by law.
10. Termination
You may stop using the service at any time. We may suspend or terminate access for breach, risk, or non-payment. Provisions that by nature should survive (including IP, liability, and governing law) survive termination.
11. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa. Courts of South Africa have jurisdiction, without prejudice to mandatory consumer protections. Parties should first attempt to resolve disputes in good faith via info@labourmarket.co.za.
12. Changes
We may update these Terms. Material changes will be reflected by updating the effective date. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance where permitted by law.
