An MEIBC wage agreement could be extended to employers who never agreed to it. Only 18 days remain. If you do nothing, your cost-to-company for an entry-level worker will hit R99 per hour. NEASA needs employers employing another 25,000 workers to join before 30 June.

Watch the full episode: In February 2018, Cyril Ramaphosa stood before South Africa and promised to govern with care. To meet the needs and aspirations of the people. Eight years later, the verdict is in. Unemployment above forty percent. Business-hostile legislation piling up. Municipalities that cannot deliver basic services. A Phala Phala scandal with too many unanswered questions and too little accountability. Under Zuma, state capture was crude and visible. Under Ramaphosa, it became more sophisticated. The result is the same. Decay. NEASA Chief Executive, Gerhard Papenfus, does not mince words. South Africa is not short of solutions. It is short of leaders willing to implement them.

Government says steel tariffs protect local industry. Gerhard Papenfus says they are destroying it. In this Moneyweb News interview, the Chief Executive of NEASA argues that South Africans are being forced to pay inflated steel prices to keep AMSA alive — while downstream manufacturers collapse, exports disappear, and jobs are lost. Every tariff forces manufacturers, builders, engineers, and ultimately consumers to pay inflated prices for steel. South Africans are left carrying the cost. If cheaper, good-quality steel exists globally, why are YOU being punished for using it?

Government wants R100 billion from South African businesses, with no accountability for where it goes. The proposed BEE Transformation Fund would force companies to hand 3% of after-tax profit to a state-run fund. Procurement targets would make it effectively impossible to buy from suppliers who don't meet strict ownership requirements. Good businesses will lose contracts. Investment will leave. Jobs will not be created. Gerhard Papenfus, Chief Executive of NEASA, breaks it all down in the latest episode of The Employers’ Voice.

When policy excludes people from competing, trading, and growing, the outcome is clear: Economic genocide. Not with weapons, but with regulation, compliance pressure, and enforced exclusion. SA needs growth, investment, and real opportunity, not more control. Gerhard Papenfus (NEASA) elaborates:

In this heated eNCA interview, Gerhard Papenfus, Chief Executive of NEASA, debates with the interviewer over the controversial chant “Kill the Boer, Kill the Farmer.” Papenfus argues that the chant is clear hate speech and a call for violence, backing US Embassy South Africa Ambassador Brent Bozell, who said he disagrees with this chant and considers it hate speech. The question is how this is allowed in South Africa, while in other countries, such language would have serious legal consequences? The interviewer challenges Papenfus, pointing to South Africa’s legal context and the ruling of the Constitutional Court of South Africa, which has allowed the chant under certain interpretations of political speech.

SA Government instructs employers to use repealed legislation from 1950 to classify employees by race. Over the last year of pressing the Department of Employment and Labour for answers, NEASA has finally received a response. According to the Department, employers should use the Apartheid-regime's Population Registration Act of 1950 for Employment Equity racial classification.

Employment Equity Quotas: Mr President, employers will not do your dirty work. The Employment Equity numerical sectoral targets, by virtue of the EEA1 form, effectively forces employers, when employees refuse to do so themselves, racially classify their employees.
