EMPLOYERS

Why Hire Through EP-Exec?

We believe business success is developed through communication, thus establishing quality and productive relationships of mutual benefit. This applies to all businesses from entrepreneurial start-ups, SMMEs and large corporations.

As Richard Branson famously said, “a business is simply an idea to make other people’s lives better.” EP Exec exists to make your life as a business owner, director or manager easier, especially when it comes to hiring employees.

However, EP Exec isn’t merely “another employment agency” for employees and business to benefit from. We stand apart because of our tried and tested ethos, particularly in stakeholder engagement and community involvement capabilities.

We are driven by economic growth that includes equality and fairness for both business and employees alike. As George Bernard Shaw said, “don’t wait for the right opportunity, create it” – and, that is both our strength, and our business secret.

AWARD WINNING FORMULA

How This Benefits Your Business

Before embarking upon the launch of any new development (project), EP Exec engage, negotiate and build amicable relationships with relevant stakeholders. This includes sharing the new project’s concept, scope, vision, mission and local benefits i.e. job creation. This helps gain local community trust and buy in.
 
Although these negotiations take considerable time – sometimes several months to establish, and are therefore costly for the developers, they are vitally important. Why? This contributes significantly towards a project’s overall success, including long-term community and business benefits such as harmony, stability, security, new opportunities and economic growth.
 
This is an award winning formula that has also been internationally recognised. In 2019, and in conjunction with McCormick Property Development group, EP Exec (formally EmpowerPloy) won an international award for our community efforts and stakeholder engagement. The award was received following the successful completion of the Mall of Thembisa development.
 
Important stakeholders include the community, traditional leaders including Kingdoms and Royal Families, security groups, various taxi associations as well as local municipality etc. More often than not, this brings archenemies together. Through our dedicated discussions we strive to attain a unified agreement, and peaceful way forward.
 
Stakeholders also help us to identify, engage with and eliminate any potential threats from vigilante type groups. This has been particularly important in the construction industry with the notorious “construction mafia” sabotaging developments. These groups may be operating, threatening to stronghold or control a specific territory within the community.  If necessary, and where possible, we include them in our negotiations too. After all, the root of their grievances was often a lack of access to employment opportunities, which we try to resolve in both capacities – for small businesses and for individual job creation.

EP-Exec Benefits to Businesses

As is evident, stakeholder engagement and negotiations add significant value to the overall success of our projects. This benefit naturally extends to shopping centres or mall’s tenant businesses, as well as surrounding established businesses too.

The power of these negotiations also aids businesses by drastically reducing costly losses due to possible work stoppages, taxi wars, violence, riots etc. As a result, we indirectly protect both employees and customers alike, whilst also helping businesses to remain profitable.

By hiring your employees through EP-Exec you are essentially falling under our banner of protection. Should you encounter any problems, we can immediately intervene, and negotiate on your behalf to ensure the continuation of your business operations.

For the record, we are not a “union”, nor do we operate as one. We are an independent business with extensive, well established networks within all major township communities, mostly in Gauteng. Our strong relationships with various traditional Kingdoms further strengthens our position.
