Gizelle Mc Intyre
Director: The Institute of People Development
Institute of People Development
(IPD)
The Institute of People Development (IPD) is committed to an
ongoing process of achieving and maintaining its status as a "centre
for learning excellence".
• Primary Aim
– To enhance the quality of workplace learning provision through the
development of managers, supervisors and learning development practitioners.
• The Institute strives to be a "change agent" by
– Providing qualifications to managers, supervisors and learning & development
practitioners
– Offering recognition of prior learning (RPL) services to experienced learning &
development practitioners
– Conducting research projects designed to generate best practice products and
processes through a continuous professional development (CPD) programme
– Expanding the field of learning & development practices to the wider public
through seminars, media releases, on-line resources and communities of
practice workshops and consulting
– Making available its learning facilities and resources in Midrand to its clients
and stakeholders for the purposes of high quality learning provision
Quick Question

ROI
• OK let’s make today worth your while…..
• Please turn to the person to your right and left
and identify and consolidate 2 main ideas you
would like me to focus on based on the
following slide.
• Please write them down on the paper
provided.
Topics up for discussion
• Current and proposed landscape: Skills
Development
• Legislation and Skills Development
• PIVOTAL programmes, workplace learning and
RPL
• Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment
(BBBEE) Skills Development point
requirements
• What does the future hold?
Why do we do what we do?
• Training for compliance begs the question – when will South
Africa opt for a healthy skills development approach?
• The key is to employ skills development is to :
– foster better engaged workers,
– build people’s proficiencies and
– upskill the nation
NOT to gain some BBBEE points or tick a tick box on your
scorecard.
• This process is garnering some cynicism and a feeling of
exhaustion amongst the true believers of real skills
development and transformation. Ironic, considering the
points can still be gained with a focus on meeting real needs.

CULMINATING INTO
THE NATIONAL SKILLS
PLAN
Proposed New Skills Development
Landscape
• With National Skills Development Strategy (NSDS) III finishing its five year life-span
in 2016 (now extended to March 2018), it was expected that a fine-tuning of the
key skills development institutions would take place to support the new NSDS.
• The proposed new landscape is however a significant evolution in the institutional
landscape and one which therefore requires significant consideration and
discussion among stakeholders.
• The Department of Higher Education & Training (DHET) published on 10 November
2015 a draft proposal for a new National Skills Development landscape which
would take effect on 1 March 2018.
• The proposal is a government gazette with a deadline of 20 January 2016 for public
comments.
Proposed New Skills Development
Landscape
• The title of the DHET document is "Proposal for the New National Skills Development
Strategy (NSDS) and Sector Education & Training Authorities (SETAs) Landscape (NSLP 2015)".
What changes are proposed?
• SETAs would be absorbed into the Department of Higher Education & Training but
constituted as Specialised Delivery Units (Section 7B of the Public Service Act)
• They would become permanent structures, rather than have 5 year renewable life-
spans
• They would remain 21 in number (no immediate mergers but clustered into five
synergistic groupings)
• SETA Boards would remain unchanged but have greater representation from
government departments in line with a stronger public sector focus
Proposed New Skills Development
Landscape
Changes to Funding
• 80% of the current SETA Discretionary Grant would be shifted to the National Skills
Fund (equivalent to the entire current PIVOTAL Grant)
• Employers would still be able to apply for the 20% Mandatory Grant (unchanged)
and 10% of the remaining Discretionary Grant (renamed Sector Specific Grant)
• SETA administration costs would remain at 10% of the Skills Development Levy, but
likely reduced over time as a shared services unit realises bulk savings, and as
other bodies take up previous SETA functions, such as Skills Planning
• Public sector organisations would spend 1% of their personnel budget on quality
assured education and training leading to NQF qualifications and fulfill the same
reporting obligations as the private sector so as to qualify for funding from the
National Skills Fund

Employment Equity
• The purpose of this Act is to achieve equity in
the workplace by- (a) promoting equal
opportunity and fair treatment in employment
through the. elimination of unfair
discrimination; and. (h) implementing
affirmative action measures to redress the
disadvantages in 25.Oct 19, 1998
Employment Equity and Skills
Development
• Compliancy is the name of the game….
– Do you have an Employment Equity Plan and is it
up to date?
– Have you done a Skills Audit in order to analyse
you workforce profile?
– Do you have quarterly committee meetings?
– Have you submitted your EE reports?
– Have you submitted your WSP/ATR?
Implications of equity policies and
BBBEE driving skills development
• Are we training only for EE reports and BBBEE
points?
• What about critical, customised/industry
specific skills?
• What about the providers who don’t comply
but provide what we need?
Our Current Picture
• The Employment Equity Commission for South Africa has released its 2015/16 report
Employment equity, gender equity and
disability equity
The Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (B-BBEE) Amended Codes of Good
Practice was gazetted on 12 October 2013 and came into effect on 1 May 2015.
• Employment Equity no longer stands alone as an individual element.
Employment Equity has been incorporated with Management and Control
and carries 15 points for both Generic and Qualifying Small Enterprise
(QSE) businesses.
• Points are only allocated for employees in management positions.
• The calculations for management and control are complex and require
attention to the Economic Active Population (EAP). These targets are set
in accordance with each province according to racial demographics of the
said province.
Employment equity, gender equity and disability equity
• Gender
– Black female employees in management are awarded points as a separate
indicator on the scorecard.
• Disabled employees
– Only black employees with disabilities are given recognition, and are
measured as an indicator on the scorecard.
– The definition of black people with disabilities according to the Employment
Equity Act is: “People who have long-term or recurring physical or mental
impairment which substantially limits their prospects of entry into, or
advancement in, employment.” A doctor must medically certify the nature of
the disability and the duration thereof before a black employee can be termed
disabled.
Disability
Skills Development Levy (SDL)
SDL is a levy imposed to encourage learning and development in South Africa and is
determined by an employer's salary bill.
Who must pay SDL?
• If the company has staff registered for PAYE and the annual payroll exceeds R500
000 per annum, the company must register with SARS and pay a skills levy of 1% of
the monthly payroll. If the company does not fall within these criteria, it does not
have to pay levies or register with SARS.
• Where an employer expects that the total salaries will be more than R500 000
over the next 12 months, that employer becomes liable to pay SDL.
Skills Development Levy (SDL)
How much do you need to pay?
• 1% of the total amount paid in salaries to employees (including overtime
payments, leave pay, bonuses, commissions and lump sum payments).
How to determine which SETA your company belongs too?
• Each SETA has a mandate to serve the Sector Industry Classification Codes (Sic
Codes) under its control as determined by the Department of Higher Education
from time to time.
(See Government Gazette 33756 dated 11 November 2010)
What happens to the SDL Levy?
• The levies are distributed via SETA.
Skills Development Levy (SDL)
Why are you using this as a forecast of training you will be able to do for the year?
• Joe earns 100 000.00 per annum
• – this means his contribution is 1000 for the year
• – can this really be your training budget for Joe?
PIVOTAL Grants and Workplace
Learning
PIVOTAL Programmes
• Government Gazette No. 35940 of 3 December 2012 on Sector Education and Training
Authorities(SETAs) Grant Regulations regarding monies received by a SETA and related
matters, published by the Minister of the Department of Higher Education and Training
(DHET).
• National Skills Development Strategy III (NSDS III) 2011 – 2016.
The PIVOTAL grant is aimed at:
• Improving the quality and quantity of labour market information received by the various
SETAs in the form of workplace skills plans, annual training reports and PIVOTAL training
reports to inform planning.
• Promoting National Qualifications Framework (NQF) registered and quality assured PIVOTAL
programmes that address priority scarce and critical skills identified in the various SETA
Sector Skills Plan (SSP).
PIVOTAL Programmes
PIVOTAL programmes
definition
• Professional, vocational,
technical and academic

BBBEE and Skills Development
Revised BBBEE Points
The amendments to the Codes
(came into effect October 2014)
significantly
change the manner in which a
firm’s BBBEE status (or level) will be
calculated, as the number of BBBEE
points required to achieve a
particular BBBEE level has been
increased.
BBBEE Level CODES
1 ≥100 points
2 ≥95 but <100 points
3 ≥90 but <95 points
4 ≥80 but <90 points
5 ≥75 but <80 points
6 ≥70 but <75 points
7 ≥55 but <70 points
8 ≥40 but <55 points
NON-
COMPLIANT
<40 points
Revised BBBEE Elements
• 1. OWNERSHIP
• 2. MANAGEMENT CONTROL
• 3. EMPLOYMENT EQUITY
• 4. SKILLS DEVELOPMENT
• 5. PREFERENTIAL PROCUREMENT
• 6. ENTERPRISE DEVELOPMENT
• 7. SOCIO-ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT.
The amendments to the Codes reduce the number of
elements to five by fusing the enterprise
development/preferential procurement and management
control/employment equity elements.
WEIGHTING
• The weighting for
each of the five new
elements are set out
in the following table:

BBBEE and Skills Development
• With a weighting of 25 points in total, this is an element to focus on.
• The 6% of payroll spend requirement can be used for optimal ROI by projecting talent needs
per race and gender category and using the money in bespoke projects such as bursaries,
internships, learnerships, apprenticeships and other programmes.
• The ability to thereafter integrate the said individuals into employment is crucial and adds
the additional 5 bonus points. This makes proper pre-assessment practices essential to give
you the best chance of converting the said persons into full employment.
• There is a limit of 15% (of the total soend amount claimed) in claiming expenses associated
with the skills development (eg travel, accommodation and catering) and furthermore,
mandatory training (e.g. FICA, FAIS, OHS) is not recognized. Uncertified learning is also
capped at 15% of the total spend claim.
The BBBEE Players
Amended Broad -Based Black Economic Empowerment
Codes Of Good Practice October 2012
The thresholds for Exempted Micro Enterprises
and Qualifying Small Enterprises have been
adjusted as follows:
• EME increased from R5 million to R10 million
• QSE: R5 million -R35 million to R10 million -
R50 million
• Large entities: R50 million and above
Qualifying Small Enterprises (QSE’s)
Qualifying Small Enterprises (QSE’s) are defined by the Codes as companies with an
annual total turnover of between R 5 million and R35 million.
• Government has singled out small enterprises as vital in the fight for job creation
and economic growth. According to the Small Enterprise Development Agency
(SEDA), small enterprises already contribute approximately 35% of the country's
gross domestic product (GDP) and employ over half the number of people who
work in the private sector.
• Aiming to ease the regulatory burden on small enterprises, the Codes require
QSE’s to comply with ONLY four out of seven elements on the QSE scorecard.
• And while every company qualifying for measurement under the Codes must
maintain a scorecard, the codes have further eased the BEE compliance burden by
setting lower targets for these companies.
• Unlike the Generic Scorecard, the QSE Scorecard allocates an equal 25% weighting
to each of
• the seven elements, or pillars, of B-BBEE. As QSE’s only have to elect four of the
elements,
• selected elements of compliance total 100%.
Exempted Small & Micro-enterprises
Exempted Small & Micro Enterprises (EME’s) are defined by the
Codes, as companies with an annual total turnover of R 10
million or less.
• EME’s have a BEE recognition of a Level 4
contributor and those, which are either 50%,
owned by black people or 50% owned by
black women are promoted to a Level 3
contributor.
• They also automatically qualify for
procurement

“Man often becomes what he believes
himself to be. If I keep on saying to myself
that I cannot do a certain thing, it is possible
that I may end by really becoming incapable
of doing it. On the contrary, if I have the
belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire
the capacity to do it even if I may not have it
at the beginning.”

Skills Development: Real World Update

  • 1. Skills Development: a real world update Gizelle Mc Intyre Director: The Institute of People Development
  • 2. Institute of People Development (IPD) The Institute of People Development (IPD) is committed to an ongoing process of achieving and maintaining its status as a "centre for learning excellence". • Primary Aim – To enhance the quality of workplace learning provision through the development of managers, supervisors and learning development practitioners. • The Institute strives to be a "change agent" by – Providing qualifications to managers, supervisors and learning & development practitioners – Offering recognition of prior learning (RPL) services to experienced learning & development practitioners – Conducting research projects designed to generate best practice products and processes through a continuous professional development (CPD) programme – Expanding the field of learning & development practices to the wider public through seminars, media releases, on-line resources and communities of practice workshops and consulting – Making available its learning facilities and resources in Midrand to its clients and stakeholders for the purposes of high quality learning provision
  • 3. Quick Question • What brings you to the conference? • a) Knowledge building • b) Networking opportunities • c) My boss made me attend
  • 4. ROI • OK let’s make today worth your while….. • Please turn to the person to your right and left and identify and consolidate 2 main ideas you would like me to focus on based on the following slide. • Please write them down on the paper provided.
  • 5. Topics up for discussion • Current and proposed landscape: Skills Development • Legislation and Skills Development • PIVOTAL programmes, workplace learning and RPL • Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (BBBEE) Skills Development point requirements • What does the future hold?
  • 6. Why do we do what we do? • Training for compliance begs the question – when will South Africa opt for a healthy skills development approach? • The key is to employ skills development is to : – foster better engaged workers, – build people’s proficiencies and – upskill the nation NOT to gain some BBBEE points or tick a tick box on your scorecard. • This process is garnering some cynicism and a feeling of exhaustion amongst the true believers of real skills development and transformation. Ironic, considering the points can still be gained with a focus on meeting real needs.
  • 7. Acronyms are king! • ABET – Adult Basic Education and Training • AQP – Assessment Quality Partner • AIDS – Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome • BBBEE – Broad-based Black Economic Empowerment • CHE – Council on Higher Education • COGTA – Department of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs • DHET – Department of Higher Education and Training • DPSA – Department of Public Service and Administration • DQP – Development Quality Partner • DTI – Department of Trade and Industry • FABCOS – Foundation of African Business and Consumer Services • FET – Further Education and Training • GDP – Gross Domestic Product • HEI – Higher Education Institution • HESA – Higher Education South Africa • HIV – Human Immunodeficiency Virus • HRDSSA – Human Resource Development Strategy for South Africa • ICT – Information and Communication Technology • IPAP – Industrial Policy Action Plan • JIPSA – Joint Initiative on Priority Skills Acquisition • M&E – Monitoring and Evaluation • NAMB – National Artisan Moderating Body • NCV – National Certificate (Vocational) • NSA – National Skills Authority • NSDS – National Skills Development Strategy • NGO – Non-governmental Organisation • NQF – National Qualifications Framework • NSF – National Skills Fund • PIVOTAL – Professional, Vocational, Technical and Academic Learning • QCTO – Quality Council for Trades and Occupations • SEDA – Small Enterprise Development Agency • SETA – Sector Education and Training Authority • SLA – Service Level Agreement • SMME – Small, Medium and Micro-sized Enterprises • SSP – Sector Skills Plan
  • 8. Legislative History Lesson • SAQA – 1995 • Employment Equity Act – 1998 • Skills Development Act - 1998 • Skills Development Levies Act – 1999 • Skills Development Amendment Bill 2003 • A Strategy for Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment was released in 2003. • Broad-Based BEE Act No. 53 of 2003 Broad-Based BEE Act No. 53 of 2003 (‘BEE Act’) – 2004 • Codes of Good Practice 2007 • Skills Development Act (Amended) 2008 • Amended B-BBEE Codes 2012 • National Development Plan 2030 - 2013 • White Paper for Post-School E & T - 2013 • Guidelines on the Implementation of the SETA Grant Regulations - 2013 • New Landscape proposed – 2015
  • 9. Current and New Landscape
  • 10. The Current Situation In Education & Training • Skills Development has become a BBBEE scorecard conversation • The reality of the skills crisis is hitting us e.g. Eskom • Huge numbers of unemployed graduates • 7.2 million people illiterate • New forms of illiteracy developing • Professional Bodies • Uncertainty about Setas • Graduate Programmes in companies • Short Course changes
  • 11. SAQA Act NQF Act Skills Development Act WSP from your company Sector Skills Plans Creating employment opportunities for properly skilled people Skills Development Levies Act Career and alignment information www.saqa.org.za Feedback from SETA and Industry/ Associations CULMINATING INTO THE NATIONAL SKILLS PLAN
  • 12. Proposed New Skills Development Landscape • With National Skills Development Strategy (NSDS) III finishing its five year life-span in 2016 (now extended to March 2018), it was expected that a fine-tuning of the key skills development institutions would take place to support the new NSDS. • The proposed new landscape is however a significant evolution in the institutional landscape and one which therefore requires significant consideration and discussion among stakeholders. • The Department of Higher Education & Training (DHET) published on 10 November 2015 a draft proposal for a new National Skills Development landscape which would take effect on 1 March 2018. • The proposal is a government gazette with a deadline of 20 January 2016 for public comments.
  • 13. Proposed New Skills Development Landscape • The title of the DHET document is "Proposal for the New National Skills Development Strategy (NSDS) and Sector Education & Training Authorities (SETAs) Landscape (NSLP 2015)". What changes are proposed? • SETAs would be absorbed into the Department of Higher Education & Training but constituted as Specialised Delivery Units (Section 7B of the Public Service Act) • They would become permanent structures, rather than have 5 year renewable life- spans • They would remain 21 in number (no immediate mergers but clustered into five synergistic groupings) • SETA Boards would remain unchanged but have greater representation from government departments in line with a stronger public sector focus
  • 14. Proposed New Skills Development Landscape Changes to Funding • 80% of the current SETA Discretionary Grant would be shifted to the National Skills Fund (equivalent to the entire current PIVOTAL Grant) • Employers would still be able to apply for the 20% Mandatory Grant (unchanged) and 10% of the remaining Discretionary Grant (renamed Sector Specific Grant) • SETA administration costs would remain at 10% of the Skills Development Levy, but likely reduced over time as a shared services unit realises bulk savings, and as other bodies take up previous SETA functions, such as Skills Planning • Public sector organisations would spend 1% of their personnel budget on quality assured education and training leading to NQF qualifications and fulfill the same reporting obligations as the private sector so as to qualify for funding from the National Skills Fund

  • 25. Legislation and Skills Development
  • 26. Employment Equity • The purpose of this Act is to achieve equity in the workplace by- (a) promoting equal opportunity and fair treatment in employment through the. elimination of unfair discrimination; and. (h) implementing affirmative action measures to redress the disadvantages in 25.Oct 19, 1998
  • 27. Employment Equity and Skills Development • Compliancy is the name of the game…. – Do you have an Employment Equity Plan and is it up to date? – Have you done a Skills Audit in order to analyse you workforce profile? – Do you have quarterly committee meetings? – Have you submitted your EE reports? – Have you submitted your WSP/ATR?
  • 28. Implications of equity policies and BBBEE driving skills development • Are we training only for EE reports and BBBEE points? • What about critical, customised/industry specific skills? • What about the providers who don’t comply but provide what we need?
  • 29. Our Current Picture • The Employment Equity Commission for South Africa has released its 2015/16 report
  • 30.
  • 31. Employment equity, gender equity and disability equity The Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (B-BBEE) Amended Codes of Good Practice was gazetted on 12 October 2013 and came into effect on 1 May 2015. • Employment Equity no longer stands alone as an individual element. Employment Equity has been incorporated with Management and Control and carries 15 points for both Generic and Qualifying Small Enterprise (QSE) businesses. • Points are only allocated for employees in management positions. • The calculations for management and control are complex and require attention to the Economic Active Population (EAP). These targets are set in accordance with each province according to racial demographics of the said province.
  • 32. Employment equity, gender equity and disability equity • Gender – Black female employees in management are awarded points as a separate indicator on the scorecard. • Disabled employees – Only black employees with disabilities are given recognition, and are measured as an indicator on the scorecard. – The definition of black people with disabilities according to the Employment Equity Act is: “People who have long-term or recurring physical or mental impairment which substantially limits their prospects of entry into, or advancement in, employment.” A doctor must medically certify the nature of the disability and the duration thereof before a black employee can be termed disabled.
  • 34. Skills Development Levy (SDL) SDL is a levy imposed to encourage learning and development in South Africa and is determined by an employer's salary bill. Who must pay SDL? • If the company has staff registered for PAYE and the annual payroll exceeds R500 000 per annum, the company must register with SARS and pay a skills levy of 1% of the monthly payroll. If the company does not fall within these criteria, it does not have to pay levies or register with SARS. • Where an employer expects that the total salaries will be more than R500 000 over the next 12 months, that employer becomes liable to pay SDL.
  • 35. Skills Development Levy (SDL) How much do you need to pay? • 1% of the total amount paid in salaries to employees (including overtime payments, leave pay, bonuses, commissions and lump sum payments). How to determine which SETA your company belongs too? • Each SETA has a mandate to serve the Sector Industry Classification Codes (Sic Codes) under its control as determined by the Department of Higher Education from time to time. (See Government Gazette 33756 dated 11 November 2010) What happens to the SDL Levy? • The levies are distributed via SETA.
  • 36. Skills Development Levy (SDL) Why are you using this as a forecast of training you will be able to do for the year? • Joe earns 100 000.00 per annum • – this means his contribution is 1000 for the year • – can this really be your training budget for Joe?
  • 37. PIVOTAL Grants and Workplace Learning
  • 38. PIVOTAL Programmes • Government Gazette No. 35940 of 3 December 2012 on Sector Education and Training Authorities(SETAs) Grant Regulations regarding monies received by a SETA and related matters, published by the Minister of the Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET). • National Skills Development Strategy III (NSDS III) 2011 – 2016. The PIVOTAL grant is aimed at: • Improving the quality and quantity of labour market information received by the various SETAs in the form of workplace skills plans, annual training reports and PIVOTAL training reports to inform planning. • Promoting National Qualifications Framework (NQF) registered and quality assured PIVOTAL programmes that address priority scarce and critical skills identified in the various SETA Sector Skills Plan (SSP).
  • 39. PIVOTAL Programmes PIVOTAL programmes definition • Professional, vocational, technical and academic learning programmes that result in qualifications or part qualifications registered on the National Qualifications Framework (NQF) that address critical and scarce skills needs.
  • 40. PIVOTAL Programmes • Professional learning programmes shall mean programmes that lead to designations that are registered by professional bodies. • Vocational learning programmes shall mean programmes that lead to a trade and/or the National Certificate Vocational (NCV). • Technical learning programmes shall mean programmes that are occupationally-directed and registered by the SETA; such programmes include apprenticeships, Learnerships and skills programmes. • Academic learning programmes shall mean programmes that lead to academic qualifications such as certificates, Higher Certificates, Diplomas and Degrees.
  • 42. Workplace Learning: 70-20-10 model • Learn and Develop Through Experience • On-the-Job • Work Integrated Learning • Just-in-Time coaching • POEs that are workplace orientated 70% • Learn and Develop through others • Occupationally directed Learning • Mentoring and Coaching • Informal Feedback • Action Learning • Professional Networks 20% • Learn and Develop through Structured Courses and Programmes • Workshops • Professional Development • Academic studies • E-Learning 10%
  • 43. BBBEE and Skills Development
  • 44. Revised BBBEE Points The amendments to the Codes (came into effect October 2014) significantly change the manner in which a firm’s BBBEE status (or level) will be calculated, as the number of BBBEE points required to achieve a particular BBBEE level has been increased. BBBEE Level CODES 1 ≥100 points 2 ≥95 but <100 points 3 ≥90 but <95 points 4 ≥80 but <90 points 5 ≥75 but <80 points 6 ≥70 but <75 points 7 ≥55 but <70 points 8 ≥40 but <55 points NON- COMPLIANT <40 points
  • 45. Revised BBBEE Elements • 1. OWNERSHIP • 2. MANAGEMENT CONTROL • 3. EMPLOYMENT EQUITY • 4. SKILLS DEVELOPMENT • 5. PREFERENTIAL PROCUREMENT • 6. ENTERPRISE DEVELOPMENT • 7. SOCIO-ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT. The amendments to the Codes reduce the number of elements to five by fusing the enterprise development/preferential procurement and management control/employment equity elements.
  • 46. WEIGHTING • The weighting for each of the five new elements are set out in the following table:

Qualifying Small Enterprises (QSE’s) Qualifying Small Enterprises (QSE’s) are defined by the Codes as companies with an annual total turnover of between R 5 million and R35 million. • Government has singled out small enterprises as vital in the fight for job creation and economic growth. According to the Small Enterprise Development Agency (SEDA), small enterprises already contribute approximately 35% of the country's gross domestic product (GDP) and employ over half the number of people who work in the private sector. • Aiming to ease the regulatory burden on small enterprises, the Codes require QSE’s to comply with ONLY four out of seven elements on the QSE scorecard. • And while every company qualifying for measurement under the Codes must maintain a scorecard, the codes have further eased the BEE compliance burden by setting lower targets for these companies. • Unlike the Generic Scorecard, the QSE Scorecard allocates an equal 25% weighting to each of • the seven elements, or pillars, of B-BBEE. As QSE’s only have to elect four of the elements, • selected elements of compliance total 100%.

If I keep on saying to myself that I cannot do a certain thing, it is possible that I may end by really becoming incapable of doing it. On the contrary, if I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning.” ― Mahatma Gandhi
