Long description
The publication of this title will coincide with the gazetting of the final BEE Codes of Good Practice, eagerly awaited by business throughout the country, as they form the basis of the BEE scorecard system. No organisation, whether private, public or non-governmental, will be exempt. Any business operating in South Africa will find it increasingly difficult to remain viable without adopting the principles of broad-based BEE and complying with the codes of good practice. The codes are complex and difficult to interpret - who better to guide the user than one of the people most intimately involved in developing the codes, namely Vuyo Jack. Vuyo Jack is a member of the DTI-commissioned team tasked with developing the BEE codes of good practice. Also, as CEO of Empowerdex - the best known BEE rating agency in the country - he has witnessed and been involved with a multitude of BEE deals. His experience of their successes and failures has been incorporated into the title to assist readers with strategising and constructing the most appropriate empowerment deals for their specific situation. His involvement with the development of the BEE rating system and Codes of good practice gives the reader a privileged insight into the rationale behind the codes, the development of the codes, the objectives of the codes, and, most importantly, how to apply the codes in business. This title provides a lucid account of what is arguably the most important business imperative imposed since the Companies Act, and is an essential companion to anyone operating in business, government or non-governmental organisations.
