Employment Equity Plans We assist in the development and implementation of Employment Equity Plans and submission of required reports. We can guide you through the process and make sure you are compliant.

Skills Development

We will assist in analysing your training needs and facilitate skills development through a workplace skills plan. We will assist in the implementation of a Skills Development Facilitator (SDF) who will be responsible for training and development in your organisation. Many companies make the mistake of appointing their accountant or bookkeeper as the company SDF and this often is not particularly effective. The person you appoint as your SDF should be experienced and qualified to manage your skills development initiatives in accordance with Seta requirements. If this is not the case, your company’s employee may act as an assistant to an external SDF.
