Department of Employment and Labour in partnership with the Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration to host Employment Equity workshops across the country
The Department of Employment and Labour in partnership with the Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration (CCMA) will be conducting the 2022 Employment Equity Roadshows in the form of national series workshops throughout the country under the theme: “Real transformation makes business sense”.
The national series workshops/roadshows will start on 17 August 2022 in Kimberley in the Northern Cape. The workshops will end on 15 September 2022 in the Vaal in Gauteng Province.

The workshops’ programme will cover the below topics:
· Code of Good practice on the prevention and elimination of harassment in the workplace
