About us

Labour Market Activation (LMA) is a group of specialist companies structured to provide innovatively designed labour market activation programmes, solutions, and stand-alone services.

We provide significant and strategic support in addressing youth unemployment – by partnering closely with government, business, and civil society – to empower unemployed South African youth. We assist young people to find jobs, become economically active, receive relevant and accredited training, and become South Africa’s next generation of entrepreneurs.

We have demonstrated the value that we unlock for all participating stakeholders, through our Employment, Development and Experience Continuum (EDEC^®). By employing various government incentives , EDEC helps businesses engage with such incentives that contribute to successful employment and economic prosperity.

Our effective labour market activation, made possible using the innovatively designed EDEC programme, helps the South African youth with the following:

01.Secure contract, temporary or permanent employment

02.Participate in training and development programmes that help young people to become more employable and access the job market.

03.Acquire the skills necessary to become successful entrepreneurs

Provide independent, stand-alone and expert research, compliance, payroll, accounting, tax and legal services to the programmes, to assure sustainability and impact of the programmes
