Corporate South Africa has to establish a pipeline that will channel women executives to top jobs currently occupied by ageing men who will be retiring in the next five years

This is according to Andréas Horak, PricewaterhouseCoopers SA people and organisation reward co-lead partner.This followed the release of the 2022 Executive Directors Report by PwC SA last Tuesday.

However, he said there had been some “green shoots” – signs of improvement – over the past two and half years as 25% of executive directors appointed in JSE-listed companies were women. Horak said having a succession plan could help companies to identify and offer women the opportunity to also flourish in their careers.Unlike in the UK and the US, Horak said the phenomenon of “great resignations” was slightly different locally.

The PwC report said there had been an increased global focus on the enactment of legislation to regulate equal pay for work of equal value. So there are certain targets or thresholds you need to achieve. If you look at progressive maternity benefits, Europe has got significant progressive maternity benefits for their women. It depends on different territories, but it looks as though it can be up to 12 months of maternity benefits that the person qualifies for.
