New on the Lefa Le Phelang blog:

What does South Africa’s labour market tell us about B-BBEE strategy?

With unemployment at 33.6% and youth unemployment at 47.4% in Q2 2026, businesses are operating in a labour market where skills, access and opportunity remain important questions.

Our latest blog looks at what these trends can mean for Skills Development, Employment Equity, Supplier and Enterprise Development and scenario planning.

South Africa’s skills needs are changing.

Preliminary findings from Xpatweb’s 2026 Critical Skills Survey indicate that engineering, while still in demand, is no longer at the front of the list of skills employers are struggling to source.

The preliminary findings come from responses across sectors including agriculture, healthcare, transport and logistics, professional services, construction, ICT and telecommunications and tourism.

For businesses, changing skills needs are a reminder to connect workforce planning with Skills Development.

The question is whether the organisation is building the capabilities it will need next, over and above the B-BBEE points that training earns them.

An accountant often knows when a business is entering a new stage of growth.

An HR consultant knows when a workforce is changing.

A procurement consultant knows when a business is preparing to enter a new supply chain.

Those moments can bring B-BBEE questions with them.

That is why we’ve created the Lefa Referral & Growth Network.

We are building relationships with accountants, HR consultants, procurement specialists and other professional advisors who work closely with growing businesses.

The idea is straightforward:
• You know your client’s business.
• We bring specialist B-BBEE expertise.
• Together, we help the client move forward with greater clarity.

If you’re an accountant, CA, HR consultant, procurement specialist or outsourced finance professional and you’d like to become part of our referral network, get in touch with us.

The High Court has set aside the promulgation of the Legal Sector Code. What happens next matters for transformation in the legal profession.

In a judgment handed down by the Gauteng Division of the High Court, Pretoria, on 7 October 2026, the Court reviewed and set aside the Minister of Trade, Industry and Competition’s decision to promulgate the Legal Sector Code under section 9(1) of the B-BBEE Act.

The Court found that the Minister had not exercised the statutory discretion required of him when deciding to promulgate the Code. The matter has therefore been remitted to the Minister for reconsideration.

Importantly, the judgment does not determine that transformation in the legal profession is unlawful or that a sector-specific code cannot be introduced. The Court expressly recognised the constitutional imperative for transformation and the continuing need to address structural inequalities within the profession.

For businesses and professionals navigating B-BBEE, the decision is worth watching. The next steps taken by the Minister could have implications for how transformation within the legal sector is measured and implemented.

We will continue to follow developments and help businesses understand what they mean for B-BBEE compliance and transformation.

Employment Equity is an important part of understanding how transformation is progressing within South African workplaces.

The latest CEE report provides useful data for businesses to consider as they review their own workforce strategies, development plans and leadership pipelines.

For employers, this is an opportunity to look at the data within their own organisation and consider where their current approach is working well, where gaps remain and what needs greater attention.

We help businesses navigate the practical side of Skills & Equity Reporting, with support that connects reporting requirements to broader workforce and transformation planning.

The 2026 Employment Equity reporting period is now open.

For designated employers, this is an important point in the reporting calendar. The current online submission deadline is 15 January 2027, while manual and posted EE reports will not be accepted after 1 October 2026.

We assist with Skills & Equity Reporting, helping businesses navigate the reporting requirements and prepare the information needed for submission.

If EE reporting is on your September to-do list, let’s get it sorted.

There are women-owned businesses ready to grow.

Across South Africa, women are building businesses, creating jobs and entering markets that were once difficult to access. The next challenge is creating stronger pathways into corporate supply chains.

That is where the Lefa Women Supplier Readiness Programme comes in.

The programme is designed to help women-owned businesses strengthen the areas that matter when larger commercial opportunities arise:

B-BBEE readiness.
Business structure.
Documentation.
Procurement readiness.
Capacity for growth.

The aim is simple: help capable businesses become better prepared for the opportunities they are working towards.

If you are a woman-owned business preparing to supply larger organisations, we’d like to hear from you.

If you are a corporate looking for a structured way to support women-owned suppliers through your ESD strategy, we’d like to hear from you too.

The B-BBEE Commission’s transformation research analysed more than 28,000 B-BBEE certificates across a ten-year period. The findings show meaningful progress in some elements alongside persistent gaps in others.
Caption

The B-BBEE Commission recently released its review of South Africa’s transformation journey from 2013 to 2023.

The research analysed more than 28,000 B-BBEE certificates across a ten-year period.

Some of the findings are encouraging.

Enterprise and Supplier Development performance increased significantly over the period, while Skills Development also showed substantial improvement.

There are also areas where the data shows that businesses and sectors have more work to do, particularly around management control, gender representation and uneven sector performance.

So what does this mean for your business? Swipe through.

We can help you assess your position and plan your next steps.
