If you've missed the October deadline for submitting your Employment Equity Report, don't stress, you can still submit it online. So, if you're a designated employer (I'll tell you below what this is) and haven't submitted your reports, you could face harsh penalties. You could also be excluded from scoring any points at all under the Employment Equity element on your B-BBEE scorecard!

Luckily, all's not lost... You can still submit your Employment Equity Reports online at by 15 January 2014.

If you have more than 50 employees, then you're a designated employer and must submit an EE report!
 
In terms of current legislation, all designated employers are required to submit an EEA2 and EEA4 report.
 
According to the EE Act, organisations with more than 50 employees or a turnover equal to or greater than the amounts in the table below, are considered designated employers.
 
Turnover thresholds applicable to designated employers:

Sub sector	Total annual turnover
Agriculture	R2.0m
Mining and Quarrying	R7.5m
Manufacturing	R10.0m
Electricity, Gas and Water	R10.0m
Construction	R5.0m
Retail and Motor Trade and Repair Services	R15.0m
Wholesale Trade, Commercial Agents and Allied Services	R25.0m
Catering, Accommodation and Other Trade	R5.0m
Transport, Storage and Communications	R10.0m
Finance and Business Services R10.0m Community, Social and Personal Services	R5.0m

 


If you are a designated employer, you must comply with the Act by:

• Implementing affirmative action measures
• Consulting with your employees
• Analysing the organisation's workforce profile, policies, practices and procedures
• Preparing and implementing an Employment Equity plan
• Submitting employment equity reports.

If you're having trouble reporting, we have just the tool to help you...
 
Until next time,
