Pinetown notes on training & skills development
Many Pinetown manufacturers fall under merSETA, CHIETA or the FoodBev SETA, so ask a skills development facilitator which SETA your firm pays into before planning learnerships. Small and medium firms in the parks often outsource SDF work, the WSP and ATR, and B-BBEE skills evidence. Onsite courses in first aid, safety representative duties and supervisory skills are common, and groups often book facilitator and assessor courses in-house.
Pinetown: the employers, the venues and the calendar
Factory floors decide most of the training calendar in Pinetown. The industrial parks of New Germany, Westmead and Mariannhill hold food, packaging, chemical and engineering plants that book induction, safety talks, forklift and supervisor programmes, and they want the sessions on site and planned around shifts. Smaller firms in the same parks need help with the WSP and ATR each April. Up the hill, Kloof and Hillcrest offer guest houses and country venues for management strategy days away from the plant, while churches and community halls in Clermont and KwaDabeka host youth programmes and NPO workshops. Most facilitators come from Durban or live in the upper highway suburbs, so travel is short along the M13 and N3.

- Mines, plants, factories and farms: communication and conflict skills for supervisors and shift teams
