LETTER FROM OUR CEO - JULY 2024

We are thrilled to announce that for the second year in a row, we have been awarded the prestigious MEA Award for the best Compliance consultancy in Africa! This recognition is a testament to our dedication to providing exceptional service to our clients. We wouldn't be here without your continued support, and for that, we express our sincere gratitude.

South Africa's business landscape is experiencing a renewed sense of optimism. International markets are responding favorably to recent developments, with inflation easing to 5.1%. However, challenges remain, including high unemployment at 32.9% (Q1 2024) and the ongoing emphasis on Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (B-BBEE), particularly within the legal sector.


Despite these hurdles, South Africa is attracting renewed interest as a business destination, with many companies exploring opportunities to enter the African market through South Africa.


The South African economy is showing signs of improvement. Inflation has dipped to 5.1%, offering some relief to businesses and consumers. However, the unemployment rate remains high at 32.9% (Q1 2024). The focus on B-BBEE continues to be a significant factor for businesses operating in South Africa, especially within the legal and transport sectors.

Despite these challenges, there are positive developments. International markets are responding positively to recent developments in South Africa, indicating renewed confidence. This presents exciting opportunities for companies looking to expand into the African market.


Is your company keeping up with the ever-changing compliance landscape in South Africa? Here are some key areas to consider:

 

Compliance Area Questions

Occupational Health and Safety (OHS)       

  • Is your workplace safe for your employees?

  • Do you have the necessary first-aid kits, incident book, and OHS certificate?

Human Resources (HR)   

  • Are all your staff's letters of employment up-to-date?

  • Does your company have a comprehensive HR handbook outlining policies and procedures?

Skills Development            

  • Have you registered and submitted your workplace skills plan and training report?

  • Do you have a functional training committee in place?

Employment Equity (EE)  

  • Have you submitted your Employment Equity Report?
