EMPLOYMENT EQUITY – ARE YOU A DESIGNATED EMPLOYER?

By FHBCIn All Categories, Human Resource Management

fhbc_rocketmailer_jan_02_14The purpose of the Employment Equity Act is to achieve equity in the workplace. This is done by promoting equal opportunity and fair treatment in employment through the elimination of unfair discrimination; and by implementing affirmative action measures to redress the disadvantages in employment experienced by designated groups, to ensure equitable representation in all occupational categories and levels in the workforce.

On 21 July 2014, the President signed the Employment Amendment Act, No 47 of 2013. This Amendment Act became effective on 1 August 2014. If you have more than 50 employees and/or an annual turnover equal or more than the amounts tabled below, you are regarded as a “designated employer” and need to submit Employment Equity documents to the Department of Labour.

Subsector Total annual
turnover threshold
Agriculture R6 million
Mining and quarrying R22,5 million
Manufacturing R30 million
Electricity, gas and water R30 million
Construction R15 million
Retail and motor trade and repair services R45 million
Wholesale trade, commercial agents and allied services R75 million
Catering, accommodation and other trade R15 million
Transport, storage and communications R30 million
Finance and business services R30 million
Community, social and personal services R15 million

The Department of Labour has an Employment Equity Online Reporting System where reports can be submitted electronically.  The deadline for online submissions for the 2016 reporting period is 15 January 2017.If you require any assistance to determine if you are a designated employer, to register for Employment Equity, to develop a plan or to submit your report, please contact Anél Crous at anelv@fhbc.co.za.
