This comes to a monthly combined cost of R74 500 per month.
- You also need to worry about hidden costs of recruitment, training, leave, sick leave and the huge skills loss plus the inconvenience caused when they resign and you have to replace them.
- It is also very difficult to find the right people with the correct technical knowledge & skill set, experience, attitude and work ethic to take care of your IT strategy and infrastructure.
