| Broad Based Black Economic Empowerment (BBBEE) |
Our current score is 4At Eta Lyons and Associates, we have adopted a social development strategy with three core areas: Community Development Our community development program in Diplaneng in the Eastern Free State was started as response to the HIV/AIDS scourge in that area. Our work focuses on helping orphans and child headed households in that area. The project now also delivers a weekly nutritious meal to about 100 orphans. Skills DevelopmentWe constantly seek out young talent, invite them to work with us and let them explore various aspects of the recruitment business. Economic DevelopmentOur strategy will endeavour to exceed minimum sector requirements for broad based BEE. Poverty AlleviationWe are committed to contributing to poverty alleviation in SA. With this in mind, we currently support three black female orphans. One, a young Sotho girl, resides with her church minister in the Eastern Free State and in the Western Cape, two recently orphaned Xhosa girls aged 11 and 9, living with their extended family. We cover the cost of clothing, schooling, transport and food for all three children. |
