Penalties for Employment Equity Contraventions!
Penalties for Employment Equity Contraventions!South African companies are currently facing penalties for failing to meet the targets set in their Employment Equity (EE) plans. We are now seeing the Department of Labour ramping up its auditing and has stated that the majority of companies with March 2022 year-end, have missed the mark in terms of complying with EE legislation.
One of the reasons for companies being fined and penalised is that their EE plans are not conforming with the goals and numerical targets set by the designated employers and therefore not projecting rational progress towards transformation. It is therefore prudent that companies avoid setting targets in their EE plans that are not attainable.
EconoBEE specialises in Employment Equity Services and is therefore well-equipped to assist companies accurately when it comes to compliance in terms of EE plans.
EconoBEE also hosts and runs workshops on Employment Equity in which we advise companies and their relevant staff members on how they can comply with EE legislation
