Labour minister Membathisi Mdladlana emphasised yesterday that he will not apologise for any mistakes in a “name and shame “campaign.

Speaking at the Black Managers forum conference in Durban, Mdladlana said that he will not apologise to anyone.

He said that companies that submitted equity reports under different names were in the wrong.

He also warned over one thousand employers which he claimed had not submitted equity reports for last year to clear their houses before they come at them.

He landed up in the spotlight last month when he named 10 JSE companies who he says failed to adhere to employment equity legislation.

However according to the Weekend Argus, it emerged that many companies had filed reports, but possibly under various names.
