THE DEMAND FOR LABOURTHE DEMAND FOR LABOUR
• The Mining Charter was revised in 2009-2010 through the Mining Industry’s
Growth, Development and Employment Task Team (MIDGETT) in order to review
progress, streamline and expedite objectives
• This resulted in the Stakeholders’ Declaration on the strategy for sustainable growth
and meaningful transformation of SAs mining industry on 30 June 2010
• The Broad Based Socio-economic Empowerment Charter for the SA mining and
minerals industry was also amended in September 2010 as well as the scorecard
• The MQA continues to focus on the objectives of the Mining Charter by adhering to
the employment equity principles when selecting learners onto its programmes
• The MQA also supports the Human Resource Development Strategy through its
learnerships, ABET, bursaries, internships, work experience, maths and science and
other programmes
• Going forward the MQA SSP aims to fully integrate the Mining Charter in its
strategic planning processes.

NSDS 3 & MINING CHARTER SUPPORT
Implement NSDS3 and support skills development in terms of the Mining Charter as per the MMS priority skills
STRATEGY ALIGNMENT
We have amended our strategic objectives to include objective decision making through research as well as the enhancement of information management and monitoring, evaluation and review
TRANSFORMATION – DEVELOPING BLACK MANAGERS
More learners entering in our bursary scheme, work experience and internships to ensure transformation in the sector takes place, particularly the development of black managers

IMPROVING WOMEN PARTICIPATION
Increasing the number of women in our programmes is a constant focus. Previous programmes had male intakes that are still reflected as high in the system, but this is turning around
DISABILITY
Concerted efforts are being made to encourage employers to take on learners with disabilities. A Disability and Reasonable Accommodation Toolkit is being compiled and workshops will take place during 2011
RECOGNITION OF PRIOR LEARNING
We are finalising our RPL implementation strategy as we recognise the importance of this in our sector

PROGRAMMES PROGRAMMES CAREER GUIDANCE
We have developed a career guidance book which is distributed to schools. We also visit schools and host exhibitions. We also host or partner career days with other organisations, DMR, DHET, DoL, SAQA, municipalities and mining houses throughout the year
QUALIFICATIONS
All qualifications out for public comment are finalised within set timeframes so that effective implementation takes place
IMPROVING LITERACY
Of the estimated 550 000 employees in our mines, 50% have education below
NQF Level 1. We are ensuring increased learner intakes, that ABET facilitators are well trained, the curriculum is improved and assessment processes are eing standardised
LEARNER INTAKES
Employers are being incentivised to take on learners on ABET, learnerships, artisans and skills programmes. A funding policy has been approved.
Workshops are taking place to communicate benefits of active participation

MATHS AND SCIENCE
This project has now been extended to eight provinces as opposed to five. The budget has also been increased. The project was intended to assist learners to obtain appropriate maths and science results for them to pursue mining related careers. It is also intended to be a feeder project to the MQA bursary scheme project
BURSARIES
Over 600 learners are on the MQA bursary scheme project and intakes take place annually for learners from previously disadvantaged communities that pursue mining related careers
WORK EXPERIENCE AND INTERNSHIPS
We are increasing numbers and already have a 90% success rate

• The new economic growth path announced on 10 February 2011 aims to contribute to:
creating five million jobs and reduce unemployment
from 25% to 15% over the next 10 years
• The is to address employment, inequality and poverty.
• Employment opportunities need to be unlocked with the mining sector being one of the
sectors identified
• Areas in the sector where jobs can be created must be identified.
• More than a million jobs were lost in 2009, the mining sector being a contributor
• The state, employers and labour will need to develop partnerships in order to achieve the
new growth plan and turn this around.
• The MQA has a role to play in terms of developing skills to prepare those employed and
unemployed for job opportunities.
• Research needs to be conducted to monitor skills and employment created
• The MQA through the NSDS can get involved in co-ordinating activities
to support the New Economic Growth Path.
