Designated large employers due to submit Employment Equity reports on 3 October can now do so via the Department of Labour`s (DOL`s) new online reporting system.
Employers with a staff complement of 150 employees or more can submit their reports electronically at http://www.labour.gov.za.
The new system will enable employers to securely and directly relay reports to the exact or responsible managers, says the department. The data supplied will therefore be validated automatically.
There will be no query letters sent as co-responses to employers, no delays as previously experienced due to postage, and employers will have an advantage of working on the system as much as they desire - and the information will be stored automatically, says DOL.
The user name and password will be supplied by the department before 1 September.
Employers who need assistance can dial the DOL call centre on 086 0101 018.
