LEGAL ISSUES
For Technicians, Technologists and Engineers to do work in the Engineering field, they need to understand what was Gazetted as Engineering Work.
It is a legal requirement that a person must register with the Engineering Council of South Africa as a Professional Engineer, a Professional Engineering Technologist or a Professional Engineering Technician – see the Engineering Professions Act 46 of 2000.
By not being registered, the individual stands the risk of having to pay a fine equal to double his / her salary while doing that work.
To register and remain registered, it is compulsory for professionals to obtain CPD points on a regular basis.
