Employment equity

Constantly improving our demographic profile is a key driver of Avusa’s transformation process. This is supported by a detailed employment equity strategy and policy, and significant investment in training and development.

In each business unit, employment equity targets are quantitatively and qualitatively measured. The former is aligned to group targets, while the latter considers strategic human resources initiatives aimed at attracting, engaging and retaining staff.
