TONGAAT-HULETT HAS REGULARLY SUBMITTED EMPLOYMENT EQUITY REPORTS TO THE
DEPARTMENT OF LABOUR
According to reports in the press today, the Minister of Labour, Minister
Membathisi Mdladlana, released the names of 13 JSE-listed companies that have
allegedly not submitted Employment Equity Reports for 2005 as required by law.
Tongaat-Hulett has been identified as one of the companies on the list.
Tongaat-Hulett submitted Employment Equity Reports in 2005 covering all its
activities by the October deadline. It has done so annually since the
introduction of the relevant legislation in 2000.
Peter Staude, the CEO of Tongaat-Hulett said, "We are taken aback and have been
embarrassed by the perception that has been created that Tongaat-Hulett has not
submitted reports in 2005. We have made significant progress in transforming
Tongaat-Hulett with 48,9% of management and 81,0% of skilled and supervisory
staff being black. In the latest Financial Mail Top Empowerment Companies
Survey, Tongaat-Hulett is ranked sixth overall for employment equity out of
South Africa"s top 200 JSE-listed companies."
