Abstract South Africa is a party to various international human rights instruments that obligate it to develop enforcement mechanisms to include persons with disabilities in the workplace. Among such mechanisms is the need to develop legislation to deal with workplace disparities. In this context, South Africa has, over the years, enacted different labour laws aimed at addressing disparity and injustices of the past in the workplace. Persons with disabilities are among those who were prejudiced and continue to experience discrimination based on their status. Despite the evolution of the labour legislation and the obligation imposed by international instruments, disability laws are not effectively enforced. While research has been conducted generally on the rights of persons with disabilities, it appears that there has not been much research focussing on the enforcement of disability laws particularly from workplace leader’s perspective. This article therefore seeks to explore South Africa’s obligation towards enforcement of disability provisions in the workplace and recommends a transformational leadership approach to effectively enforce legislation governing disability in the workplace, thereby safeguarding the rights of persons with disabilities.

利用变革型领导在南非工作场所实施残疾法

摘要 南非是各种国际人权文书的缔约国，这些文书要求其制定执法机制，将残疾人纳入工作场所。在这些机制中，需要制定立法来处理工作场所的差异。在此背景下，南非多年来颁布了不同的劳动法，旨在解决工作场所过去存在的差异和不公正现象。残疾人属于那些受到偏见并继续因身份而遭受歧视的人。尽管劳工立法和国际文书规定的义务不断发展，但残疾法并未得到有效执行。虽然对残疾人的权利进行了普遍的研究，但 似乎没有太多研究关注残疾法的执行，特别是从工作场所领导的角度来看。因此，本文试图探讨南非在工作场所执行残疾规定的义务，并建议采用变革型领导方法来有效执行有关工作场所残疾的立法，从而保护残疾人的权利。
