SITA Employment Equity Notes: Overall the Company performed well with regards to the achievement towards the set Employment Equity targets in the first year (06/07), however with the commencement of the 2nd year (07/08), Management must make rational decisions when appointments are made in the future. When analysing the progress made to date with regards to the attainment of the set Employment Equity targets on each occupational job level, there are, however, still concerns that the Company is lagging behind with regards to race representation on specialist and lower management job levels, as well as gender (Female) on advanced specialist and senior management job levels. To this end the Company will implement the integrated employment equity strategy which will address these areas of concern. The overall IT skills shortage in the market, combined with a very high demand for EE candidates, will remain a serious constraint in the short and medium term.
DOD Business Unit EE Statistics Notes: The DOD’s Unique application portfolio requires embedded DOD knowledge critical for resources that are difficult to source. The ring fenced Infrastructure (Network & Data centers), current lagging technology baseline also serves as a constraint to attract resources The overall IT skills shortage in the market, combined with a very high demand for EE candidates, will remain a serious constraint in the short and medium term.
