OPENING OF OFFICE IN BLOEMFONTEIN
During the reporting period Grain SA decided for industry strategic reasons to open an office for the
Farmer Development Department in Bloemfontein. This decision required thorough planning to ensure
that all legal procedures as prescribed by the Labour Law were implemented. A consultation process as
prescribed by Article 189 of the Labour Relations Act was followed with all personnel members affected.
The results of the process were that four personnel members moved to Bloemfontein and one personnel
member accepted a retrenchment package. In order to fill all the positions, four new personnel members
were appointed in Bloemfontein. One person was offered an alternative position in Bothaville and could
therefore be retained in the Grain SA structure.
