Often EE Committees are not sufficiently active during the year. The compilation of EE submissions to the Department of Labour (DoL) then becomes a task to which someone in Human Resources is assigned, and which is “signed-off” by the EE committee. This scenario is non-compliant with DoL requirements.
The below 10 step implementation plan is set out in the DoL’s Code of Good Practice on The Preparation, Implementation, and Monitoring of Employment Equity Plans – 12 May 2017. Inadequately following this process may result in inaccurate reporting and/or targets not being adhered.
Transcend can walk you through the 10-step implementation plan (rather than academic training) to ensure that not only your plan this year is completed, but you have a robust process to sustain this into the future.

– contribute to the lack of affirmation of diversity in the workplace;
– adversely affect designated groups; and
– identify practices or factors that positively promote employment equity and diversity in the workplace.
Secondly, do a workplace profile to determine the extent of under-representation of employees from the designated groups in the different occupational categories and levels of the employer’s workforce.
At the end of Phase 1, you should have a clear EE plan. The next Phase is the implementation of your EE plan.
– who is responsible for the implementation of the plan;
– where information regarding the plan can be obtained;
– the objectives and duration of the plan;
– dispute resolution procedures; and
– roles and responsibilities.
– keep records of the plan;
– implement mechanisms to monitor and evaluate the implementation of the plan;
– evaluate progress at structured and regular intervals;
– report on progress to the consultative forum and all stakeholders; and
– review and revise the plan through the consultation process.
– 150 or more employees: report annually to the DoL
– Less than 150 employees: report bi-annually to the DoL
