SKILLS DEVELOPMENT LEVY (SDL)
In the event that your business’ salaries, wages and rations amount to more than R500 000 per
year, the South African Revenue Services (SARS) would demand of you to pay 1% of that
amount over to him (i.e...1% of R500 000 = R5 000). Together with a company called ELI, we
can claim that 1% (R2750) back to be utilized for training. The good news is that you may have
already paid SDL money over to SARS who in its turn has paid the bulk of the money over to
the relevant Seta and it’s waiting there to be claimed and used for training. If these moneys
aren’t claimed by you through us or any other accredited training institution and used for
training, then these moneys would be forfeited and a chance to better your workers’ technical
and life skills, would be lost.
EMPLOYMENT EQUITY
Any business that has more than 50 employees or has a turnover of more than R6 million, must
according to law register as an Employment Equity Organisation and certain procedures must
be followed and certain forms must annually be completed. In the event that your organisation
falls in this category, we will be able to complete the Employment Equity process for you.
Cost: R3000 per organisation
WIETA CONSULTANCY
The following are important if you are audited by WIETA.
In preparation for your WIETA audits later this year, it would be good if there was a WIETA
training session. This can be held with all your workers while there are still temporary workers
on the farm. Such a session lasts about 2 hours and can be offered by the farmer himself or it
can be done Murray Mallinson (Malfo training) services at R300 per hour.

implementation thereof.

56. BASIC BUSINESS PRINCIPLES
This is an excellent course based on the 5 M course that was given by The Rural Foundation
years ago. We do away with all misconceptions and give the learner a new insight regarding his
role on the farm and how everything works. At the end of the course we do a role-play game in
which the learner gets a chance to manage a fictional farm. This game is really an eye opener as
to the complexities of farming and also serves as an assessment. This course was originally
written for agriculture but can be applied to any other industry.

We do everything as in the above course based on the 5 M course that was given by The
Rural Foundation years ago and Basic Successful Business Management Practices. We are
doing away with all misconceptions and giving the learner new insights about his new role as
manager on the farm / business and how to interlink everything. At the end, we also do role-
play in which the learner himself gets a chance to manage an imaginary place / business. This
game really opens their eyes and serves as an assessment and proof for the Seta that training
has taken place. This course was originally based on Agriculture, but can be adapted for any
industry. We expand on subjects like Invoices, receipts, budgets, replacement policies,
maintenance, personnel and profit and loss management

58. MAKE IT RIGHT (RECONCILIATION)
This course was written in response to requests from farmers to address the tendency of farm
workers to fight, argue and molest and to bring reconciliation between the worker, his/her
family, fellow workers, neighbours and their employer. Discontent leads to vengeance which in
turn leads to the destruction of relationships in the family and the wider community.
We emphasize in this course that everyone should take responsibility for their actions. We show
them how they could have reconciliation, forgiveness and the restoration of their relationships.
This course has had great success in our prisons and it has proved that people could change for
the better. The success of this course has led to the fact that the Correctional Services regards it

It would be appreciated if training dates could be booked at least a month in advance.
Payment conditions: for all SDL clients payments must be made strictly within 30 days.
For all other clients our conditions are strictly cash with the commencement of training.
Cancellation conditions: Due to the fact that an immense amount of training takes place
within a certain period (the winter months), we suffered quite a few losses due to the fact
that clients would cancel at the last moment. This unfortunate state of affairs has forced us to
implement the following guidelines:
1. The client has to sign a written quotation comprising the following:
2. Any cancellations made within 1 month of the training date, the client will be
invoiced for 75% of the training costs.
3. Any cancellations made within 2 weeks of the training date, the client will be
invoiced for 100% of the training costs.
4. Training bookings must be made either by e-mail or fax.

given to any other training institution.
