Ruwacon is committed to:

Sustainable Development

Ruwacon is a dedicated company committed to the restoration of buildings in the regions where it operates. The firm is steadfast in its mission to foster the advancement of South African citizens, actively pursuing relevant training projects to provide its staff with opportunities for self-development and participating in community outreach projects.
Recognising the skills deficit in South Africa, Ruwacon extends learnerships to previously disadvantaged individuals within the organisation. Additionally, a bursary plan is in place for technical students, along with in-service training initiatives. These endeavours serve as the cornerstone of the company's commitment to skill development.
In tandem with these programmes, Ruwacon engages in training initiatives such as EPWP to contribute to uplifting and empowering the communities it serves. The company extends comprehensive financial support via its bursary program, aiming to empower previously disadvantaged individuals, Ruwacon offers them the chance to acquire the necessary qualifications to enter the construction industry.
Several students are currently enrolled in the National Institute for the Deaf in Worcester, pursuing a construction course. Notably, four students with hearing impairments have successfully integrated into Ruwacon's workforce upon completing their courses.
Beyond individual development, Ruwacon actively supports educational initiatives within the communities it operates, aiming to provide beneficiaries with sustained economic access. As part of its broader development efforts, the company initiated a supplier development programme. The primary objective of this programme is to assist growing contractors in achieving independence and long-term viability by addressing development issues outlined in the B-BBEE Codes of Good Practice.
Each emerging contractor undergoes a comprehensive needs analysis, scrutinising areas such as finances and administration, legal compliance, tender processes, purchasing, cost control, programming, technical skills, and labour and general management skills. Following the needs analysis, a business development plan is meticulously crafted based on the identified requirements.
