Question 1:
1.1 Discuss the major acts (pieces of legislation) and strategies that impact
human resource development (HRD) in South Africa.
[25 Marks]
Human Resource Development (HRD) in South Africa is shaped by various legislative
frameworks aimed at promoting skills development and addressing the challenges of
inequality, unemployment, and poverty. These laws and strategies ensure a well-
trained and skilled workforce. Key legislation and strategies include the following
The Skills Development Act (1998)
The SDA aims to develop the skills of the South African workforce, promote
employment, and increase productivity. It encourages employers to provide structured
training for employees and establishes structures such as the Sector Education and
Training Authorities (SETAs). It also lays out mechanisms for using workplace learning
as a tool for workforce development. Its purpose is to improve the skills of the
workforce through training and education programs.
The Skills Development Levies Act (1999)
This act requires employers to contribute 1% of their payroll towards a skills
development levy. These funds are collected by the South African Revenue Service
(SARS) and distributed to SETAs to finance training programs and other skills
development initiatives. The Act requires employers to pay levies used for developing
employee skills.
The National Skills Development Strategy (NSDS)
It outlines the framework for addressing skills shortages in the country.
