As a leading provider of compliance solutions since 1996, Labournet has helped thousands of businesses address requirements and objectives associated with Employment Equity, Skills Development and B-BBEE in South Africa. We proactively instil best practices and procedures to support growth and equity in our clients’ business by navigating the intricacies of legislation on their behalf.

Overview of Transformation

B-BBEE, Employment Equity, and Skills Development are key frameworks aimed at promoting a more inclusive and empowered workspace. Employment Equity promotes equal opportunities and fair treatment in the workplace, while the Skills Development Act enhances workforce skills and productivity. B-BBEE focuses on increasing black ownership, management control, skills development, and supporting black-owned businesses. Labournet helps businesses navigate these frameworks, ensuring compliance, improving market access, enhancing reputation, and fostering a diverse, skilled, and engaged workforce.

Your Strategic Compliance Partner
We understand that employment legislation can be complicated and cumbersome to manage in-house. Our compliance consulting services make understanding, implementing and managing required actions seamless.
