Section 96: Employment of disabled or incapacitated person

96. Employment of disabled or incapacitated person (1) The supervising officer may, on application made to him, grant a permit, subject to such conditions as he thinks fit, authorising the employment of a person at less than the minimum remuneration prescribed in Remuneration Regulations or under a collective agreement where that person, by reason of infirmity or physical incapacity, is incapable of earning the minimum remuneration specified in those regulations or collective agreement. (2) Where a permit under subsection (1) is in force, the remuneration authorised to be paid to the worker under the permit shall, subject to compliance with the conditions under which the permit is granted, be deemed to be the minimum remuneration in relation to the worker. (3) Any person who is aggrieved by the decision of the supervising officer to grant or to refuse to grant a permit under subsection (1) may make an application to the Tribunal to reverse the decision and, on hearing the application, the Tribunal may make such order as it thinks fit.
