"Power Fashion has been working with Northern Personnel for more that 8 years and I would like to thank them
for their professionalism and always willing to help attitude. Sonja, Promise and Matidi have always
assisted and guided us for all our employee relations issues. Their knowledge
and effectiveness in also dealing with all CCMA matters have always brought
peace of mind to us. Even through the toughest time in our history with the Covid pandemic, Morne and his entire team from
payroll to IR was there to support, guide and advise us and for that we are extremely grateful. Trust is difficult
to earn, but Sonja and her team have more than earned our trust and we look forward to many more years together. Thank you."
Bruwer Vermaak - HR Manager
"In all the 10+ years, I have never had a phone call unreturned within an hour at most and have been assisted on
numerous occasions on the phone as well as in person. The staff handling the disciplinary hearings are more than
professional and most importantly, are impartial to the situation at hand and thus can be trusted to make the best
recommendation without bias. They are also always on time. Disciplinary dismissals are also handled in a way that
they consult with their legal team to avoid any post-dismissal issues. We have only ever appeared at the CCMA once and
considering the law is mostly in the employees' favour, I regard this track record as excellent."
Nina van Heerden - Sleebok
"Northern Personnel is a business with a purpose - they serve with principles of human dignity and of justice. They are dedicated
to the highest standard of professional and technical excellence. To our company, Northern Personnel is a lifeboat to assist with all
our HR and Payroll. The staff is available and very capable in their duties. We are grateful for the impact that they have on our business
and know this will only grow in future."
