Employment and Labour Minister Thulas Nxesi has commended the Commission for Conciliation Mediation and Arbitration (CCMA) for delivering another clean audit outcome in the financial year 2022/23.
In a statement, the department said the endorsement by the office of Auditor-General of South Africa (AGSA) will strengthen the organisation’s continued commitment of expeditious dispute management, prevention and resolution services.
The CCMA, in maintaining an unqualified audit opinion with no findings audit for the 2022/23 financial year, further reported that a 94% performance was achieved against planned targets of the approved 2022/23 Annual Performance Plan (APP).
Nxesi said the clean audit opinion means that the CCMA’s 2022/23 audited Annual Financial Statements (AFS) were free from material misstatements, that no irregular, fruitless and wasteful expenditure incidents were reported, and no issues of supply chain management were observed.
A clean audit further confirms that reported performance is supported by valid, reliable and complete performance evidence.
“The above noted audit opinion and performance results are registered amidst fiscal constraints, an increased caseload and difficult labour market conditions brought about by the current socio-economic challenges confronting the South African labour market.
“Despite these challenges, the CCMA remained undeterred in its delivery of its mandate, the commitment to the adherence of good corporate governance is re–affirmed in this regard,” Nxesi said.
The Minister commended the CCMA’s governing board, senior management team, the Commissioners, the Commission Staff Association (CSA) and all employees for their passionate work and patriotism to the country as they work under extraordinary times as they execute their duties.
