*The YCLSA commends the Labour department’s firm stance on affirmative action*
*28 September 2009* The Young communist League of South Africa (UFasimba) commends the firm stance taken by the Director General of the Labour Department, Jimmy Manyi on affirmative action. Since his appointment, Manyi has asked relevant questions to companies that have previously got away with non-compliance with regards to Affirmative action policies. The recent interrogations include the questioning of why the newly Appointed CFO of Nedbank was stripped of her powers, and now the recent culprits Old Mutual who also restructured Kuseni Dlamini’s reporting lines. There is still a high level of resistance within lily-white corporate South Africa to recognise black candidates as legitimate employees in their companies who are just as competent as their white counter parts. The YCLSA further affirms support for the Department labour to continue to name and shame those that choose to undermine the law and our government. With such an attitude taken up by the Department of labour, transformation is becoming more of a reality for the black majority. We wish the Director-general all the best in this challenging post that he has taken up.
