EC Regional Productivity Awards

By

EC Regional Productivity Awards:

The entity responsible for promoting productivity within South Africa, Productivity SA, will hold an awards ceremony to recognise the winners of the Eastern Cape Regional Productivity Awards at an event to be held on 22 August 2016 in Port Elizabeth.

Through awarding these organisations, which are from the public, private and emerging sectors, Productivity SA aims to encourage other organisations to strive to be productive and globally competitive. The CEO of Productivity SA, Mr. Mothunye Mothiba says as the country’s fight against unemployment intensifies, it is through organisations like the finalists that unemployment can be tacked head on.

These awards seek to recognise individuals, organisations and communities for their contributions to building South Africa’s productive capacity.  The awards provide a platform to inspire a competitive and productive South Africa.  Productivity improvement is considered the most effective way of ensuring ongoing competitiveness, economic growth and, consequently, more wealth for all.

All South Africans (not only workers in the formal sector) are central to this process.  South Africa currently faces major challenges, for example on how to create employment opportunities, stimulate economic growth and reduce poverty. If South Africa is to reduce unemployment and poverty, and increase its economic growth, emphasis should be on developing productive capacity in all sectors of the economy.
