Question NW2802 to the Minister of Health
22 September 2015 - NW2802
van der Merwe, Ms LL to ask the Minister of Health
Whether his department meets the Government’s 2% employment equity target for the employment of persons with disabilities that was set in 2005; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details?
Reply:
No, the Department has not yet met this target. However, the Department has disabled people who refuse to be classified as such. Hence the Department dropped below 1% on this target.
END.
