An important amendment to the Codes of Good Practice has made it
possible for firms to move a level up on the B-BBEE scorecard whilst investing
in South Africa’s future by building youth employability.
The Youth Employment Service (YES) officially opened for
registration in November 2018 to enable businesses to participate in
contributing to the transformation of youth futures in South Africa.
A scaled and collaborative approach is needed given 6.1 million youth are locked out of economic participation.
YES,
the Department of Trade and Industry (dti) and South African National Accreditation System (SANAS) are working to create a seamless pathway for citizens and
companies to be part of this joint business commitment.
Join
us at a GIBS breakfast session with YES and the dti for more information and feedback on particular areas which have been identified
as important for businesses.
YES
packs will be available for delegates to take away and share with colleagues.
