Congratulations, HR Heroes!

18 Feb 2024
If you’re reading this, you've made it! Jou Yster! You’ve not only navigated through a challenging financial year, but you’ve also weathered one of the most difficult years South Africa has ever faced and you've still made it to the financial year end!

South Africa experienced the worst rolling blackouts the world has ever seen, yet you found the energy to cheer the Springboks on! The government failed in protecting the vulnerable against crime, yet you saw Dricus du Plessis punch his way to victory! Our currency reduced to peanuts, yet you still trade!

You persevered!

You are our heroes and for that we give you openHR for free to help make your year end easier. You deserve it.
HR = Hero
HR = Hero
