"It has been my privilege to work with Desiré Kok as a labour consultant since 2004. Over 14 years she has assisted my company in a number of labour related matters and helped us to draft a proper HR policy document. She has assisted in dealing with some complex Industrial Relations matters. In all of these matters Desire has acquitted herself with distinction. She is a very good negotiator and very knowledgeable on all labour and HR matters. I would recommend her unreservedly."

Francois van Iddekinge - King Civil

"Desiré has been associated with our company since 2004 when she started out doing ad hoc projects and tasks relating to Industrial Relations within our company. In 2006 Desiré became our Industrial Relations Consultant through her Consulting Business, Lekana Labour Solutions. In 2010 she was put on our payroll as Industrial Relations Manager, as a result of legislative changes which prohibited Consultants from acting on behalf of companies in dispute resolutions and hearings. This is not a full time position and Desiré has maintained similar relationships with her other clients which has never interfered with our needs. Desiré has been responsible for drafting and updating employment contracts, Company policies and procedures, chairing hearings and disputes, negotiating with unions and Shop Stewards and providing guidance on a wide range of industrial relation issues. Desiré is a person who has always displayed the utmost integrity and honesty in performing her duties, and is well respected for her fairness and impartiality in dealing with matters. Desiré is strong willed and never intimidated by anybody, and under her leadership we have had minimal industrial action and labour disruption. I would recommend Desiré to any business without hesitation as her knowledge and professionalism has been an invaluable asset to our business."
