BEE

The group will continue to have its operating decisions made at the appropriate levels of its diverse business. Participative management lies at the heart of this strategy, which relies on the building of employee partnerships at every level to foster mutual trust and to encourage people to always think about how they can improve themselves and their operations. The group strives to liberate the initiative and energies of its people, because they are the ones who make the difference to the performance of the group.

The group is committed to the principles of black economic empowerment and at board level the transformation committee is a formally appointed advisory committee, recognising that social and transformation issues, as well as reinvestment in employees and communities are critical for the long-term sustainability of the group. The committee is tasked to develop and monitor employment equity, diversity management, black economic empowerment (including gender equity), and social investment programmes.
