Good bait.
Here are examples of the discriminatory laws enacted by the SA government:
1. Employment Equity Act (EEA) of 1998 (Amended 2020)
- Requires employers to prioritize "designated groups" (black, Coloured, Indian) through racial quotas, potentially limiting job opportunities for white individuals.
2. Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment Act (B-BBEE) of 2003
- Promotes black economic participation by scoring companies on racial targets, often sidelining white candidates in hiring and promotions.
3. Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act (PPPFA) of 2000
- Prioritizes government contracts for businesses with high B-BBEE scores, disadvantageing white-owned companies regardless of merit.
4. Skills Development Act of 1998
- Ties training incentives to B-BBEE compliance, often excluding white employees from professional development opportunities.
5. Black Economic Empowerment (BEE) Codes of Good Practice
- Sets black ownership and management targets, pressuring white business owners to cede equity to secure contracts or licenses.
6. Water Use Licence Regulations (Post-1994)
- Imposes black shareholder requirements for water licenses, restricting white farmers’ access to resources based on racial criteria.
7. Expropriation Act of 2024
- Allows land expropriation without compensation, often targeting white farmers.
8. Higher Education Act (Racial Quotas in Universities)
- Implements racial quotas for university admissions, such as at UKZN, limiting white students’ access to programs like medicine (only 2% of places allocated to whites).
9. Sports Quotas (Various Policies)
- Enforces racial targets in national sports teams, potentially excluding white athletes to meet black representation goals.
10. Public Service Act (Representivity Requirements)
- Mandates racial demographics in government jobs, often prioritizing black candidates over white ones in hiring and promotions.
