4. About HRDNA
Passionate about people /
serious about compliance
HRDNA is an independent consulting firm that
assists its clients in overcoming obstacles
encountered in complying with the
Skills Development and Employment Equity Acts.
We furthermore implement interactive
Human Resources Management systems, spanning from
sourcing to termination, which allow the client organisation
to take control of the processes created therein, or to
alternatively let HRDNA manage it for them remotely.
5. About HRDNA
Cobus van Dyk,
The company is owner-led and managed by
a seasoned Human Resources professional with extensive
experience in managing HR departments for large corporates as
well as creating and growing HR departments for new entrants.
The above allowed him to lead large teams to the achievement
of people related processes. It also allowed him to see the
myriad ways in which South African organisations fall short
when they focus on implementing these processes without
real integration with other business functions.
Companies get entangled with the complexities of HR and
compliance issues to such a degree that they lose sight of
their purpose. From this realisation was HRDNA born.
7. Compliance interaction
We collaborate with organisations
in the compliance arena to ensure total
compliance from a transformation
legislation perspective as it pertains to the organisation’s
internal transformation requirements, i.e.
employment equity and skills development.
Our skills development and employment
equity strategies thus align with the larger
B-BBEE requirements, as important aspects
of your B-BBEE rating scorecard

10. Associated risks
Skills development Employment Equity
1. B-BBEE - Non-compliance in terms of skills
development has a knock-on effect for your
B-BBEE rating. With the inception of the new
sectoral codes of good practice on B-BBEE skills
development has increased in weighting quite
drastically. This means that, if all else remains the
same, and your company does what it did last year
and before that, you are likely to see a B-BBEE rating
of at least two levels lower than before. Total
compliance is a requirement for any verification on
skills development elements.
2. Claiming of grants - When your WSP and ATR is
submitted to your SETA you get acces to the following:
- Mandatory grants: 20% of all skills levies paid, and
- Discretionary grants: Tuition fees paid for your
learners enrolled on PIVOTAL programmes.
Both of the internal transformation strategies are attached to serious risk factors if the company does not comply.
Be assured that neither skills development, nor employment equity ompliance depend only on reporting and neither
of these strategies can be dealt with a month or two before the submission deadlines. The supporting documentation
to your skills and equity reports are numerous and require quite some attention, training and proof of consultation.
The department of labour has intensified its random audits
to a level where they currently manage to inspect about 20%
of designated employers annually. This means that your
organisation has a 1 in 5 chance of being audited this year.
If found non-compliant, the department can institue the
following penalties:
The greater of R1 500 000 or 2% of the employer's annual turnover
- In case of no previous contravention
The greater of R1 800 000 or 4% of the employer's annual turnover
- In case of no previous contravention of the same provision only
The greater of R2 100 000 or 6% of the employer's annual turnover
- A previous contravention within the previous 12 months
The greater of R2 400 000 or 8% of the employer's annual turnover
- Three previous contraventions
The greater of R2 700 000 or 10% of the employer's annual turnover
- Four previous contraventions
