Launch fees in ZAR. Prices shown are the total fees for the stated scope. HCSA is not currently VAT-registered and no VAT is charged. Tax treatment will be updated when registration is confirmed; your agreed quote will state the applicable total.

Standard South African roles and existing usable evidence only. We check coverage before accepting payment. New survey purchases, unusual role research, cross-border work and additional meetings require an agreed quote. These are advisory packages, not subscriptions or access to another provider’s database.

Before you buy.

Is a salary figure guaranteed?

No. Evidence must support a meaningful comparison. We check role coverage before accepting payment. If further evidence is required, we explain its cost and scope before you agree.

What happens if the agreed comparison cannot be delivered?

HCSA will discuss an alternative scope or a refund of the undelivered portion. Your written quote confirms timing, deliverables, cancellation terms and any separately authorised data costs before payment. This does not limit applicable consumer rights.

Does a package include Mercer, PwC or Paylab reports?

No third-party licence or report is automatically included. Any external data required must have suitable permitted-use rights and be agreed separately.

Can I keep working with HCSA afterwards?

Yes. Ongoing reviews, job architecture, pay structures, incentives and committee support can be scoped after the initial decision. There is no automatic renewal.
