Expert HR & IR Services for Body Corporates and Private Property Sector
Supporting SMEs, Home Owners Associations, Sectional Titles, and Private Estates with Tailored Workforce Solutions and Compliance Guidance
Welcome to Gente, your trusted partner for human resource management and industrial relations in South Africa.
We specialize in providing tailored HR and IR services for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), with a strong focus on body corporates, home owners associations, sectional titles, and private estates within the private property sector.
Our goal is to support your organisation with expert guidance, compliance, and workforce management solutions that meet the unique demands of property management environments.
Predictably most of these entities need to hire at least a few staff.
Unfortunately because the members of the organization that have been tasked with the responsibility of overseeing the staff usually have day jobs, direct day to day supervision is often lacking.
Inevitably over time this leads to dissatisfaction and tension between the members and the employees.
Usually by the time the entity gets around to addressing these issues things have gotten quite serious and professional help is needed.
Specialized HR & IR Solutions for Body Corporates, Home Owners Associations, and Private Estates
Tailor-Made Consultancy Services to Navigate Labour Compliance, Employee Relations, and Workforce Challenges for Small to Medium-Sized Property Entities
Body corporates, home owners associations, sectional titles and private estates also have to deal with the more run of the mill staff issues such as compliance with labour legislation, employee relations, collective bargaining, performance management and payroll issues.
These challenges often require specialised HR/IR consultancy services.
At the same time we know that these entities are generally too small to afford or require full-time HR/IR staff, but still need to comply with the relevant labour laws, regulations and procedures.
That is why we specialize in providing tailor-made HR/IR solutions for SMME’s, working on-site with our clients to understand their specific needs and deliver effective results.
We have a team of qualified and experienced HR and IR professionals who are ready to assist you with your HR or IR needs.
