The Commission for Employment Equity has expressed concern regarding SA’s transformation in the labour market, noting the exclusion of people with disabilities in top management positions.
The commission’s 24th report indicates that employees with disabilities have a low representation at the top management level. Only 1.8% of top management is made up of employees with disabilities and significant efforts are still needed to enhance their representation both within government and the private sector at this level. Morio Sanyane speaks to Employment Equity Director, Ntsoaki Mamashala.
