Building tomorrow begins today

Transformation and the creation of a diverse employee profile remain a key performance area for all South African businesses and the growth and development of economy and society.

At J. T Ross, a number of steps are being taken to ensure that processes and measurements within the company are aligned with regulatory requirements and the Department of Trade and Industry’s Codes of Good Practice, as well as with the real-life development needs of people within, and connected to, our business.
 
Our first Broad Based BEE (BBBEE) rating was conducted in 2008 by SEESA BEE (http://www.seesa.co.za/) and J.T. Ross has been categorised as a Level Seven Contributor. This means that businesses contracting with J.T. Ross may recognise 50% of the value of their J.T. Ross purchases on the procurement elements of their scorecards.

Moving forward, reporting systems and targets will be reviewed regularly to maintain and improve our empowerment performance, and to help our teams and business partners reach their full potential.
