If you are an employer in South Africa, here is an important heads-up! The 2023 Employment Equity (EE) reporting period has arrived, and there is a crucial update you need to be aware of.

As communicated by the Department of Labour, the EE Amendment Act, No. 4 of 2022 has not yet come into effect, which means that all designated employers, regardless of size (yes, even those with 1-49 employees), need to submit their 2023 EE Reports (EEA2 and EEA4 forms) using the current Employment Equity Act, 1998 (EEA).

Key Dates to Mark:

• Submission period opens on 1 September 2023, offering both manual and online options.
• Manual EE submissions must be in by 2 October 2023.
• For online submissions, the deadline is 15 January 2024 (midnight).

Just so you know, missing the 15 January 2024 (midnight) deadline could lead to enforcement actions under the EEA. Your organisation might also be left out of the Employment Equity Public Register for 2023.
