Ruwacon is committed to the development of its people. Considering the current skills shortage in South Africa, we are pursuing meaningful training initiatives that offer our people the opportunity to develop themselves. Our efforts are predominantly based on artisanship’s for previously disadvantaged individuals within our company as well as a bursary scheme for technical students and in-service training. Training programmes such as EPWP are also pursued in an effort to contribute to the upliftment and empowerment of the respective communities in which Ruwacon operates.
As part of our bursary scheme, Ruwacon provides full funding for previously disadvantaged individuals completing their building / civil studies. Five of these students are completing a construction course at the National Institute for the Deaf in Worcester. Despite their hearing disability, four students who completed their courses have already joined Ruwacon’s workforce.
