M.Com. (Business Management) / The recent historical changes in South Africa resulted in an outcry for affirmative action programmes. The concept of affirmative action is foreign to many businesses in South Africa. Corporate South Africa sometimes lacks focus on how to deal with this trend. Workers, with new political freedom, are not prepared to waft for a gradual introduction of affirmative action. In order to avoid crisis management, business needs to accelerate the pace in adapting to the challenge in organisations of absorbing large quantities of personnel. Affirmative action legislation in future may force employers to implement these programmes. This must be done without sacrificing quality and profitability. In order to achieve this goal, this study aims at setting strategic guidelines for implementing affirmative in an effective manner.
