5. Registration with the Engineering
Council of South Africa (ECSA)
PART 1
Registration with ECSA is a statutory requirement when consulting
work is performed. However, because a registered person is bound
not only by legal requirements but also by an ethical code of conduct,
registration is invariably beneficial to any person because of the greater
trust enjoyed by the private and public sectors.
