How Zinplex Started:
In 1998, the idea of Zinplex was born by the founding father of Zinplex, Mr. Ockert Fourie. He was a trained pharmacist who suffered from cold sores. His doctor recommended zinc, at that time he could not find any zinc over the counter supplements. Upon further investigation, he found many leading articles explaining the health benefits of zinc and was amazed, and the idea of a proudly South African zinc supplement was born…

Today And Beyond:
Thank you South Africa, loved and trusted by you! Remember, don’t make supplementation complex, keep it Zinplex – as we have done for 25 years.

AHASA is an industry body for healthcare recruitment companies. Since 1994, AHASA has made great strides towards formalising the nursing and healthcare Temporary Employment industry, giving clients and work-seekers, the confidence that the agency they partner with is legally compliant and has appropriate standards in place to provide a quality service. AHASA Member agencies have extensive knowledge in working with various healthcare institutions to recruit and manage their workforce. Our members are some of the largest TES providers in South Africa and have in-depth experience and knowledge of the industry, bringing together competent, professional and cost-effective workforce solutions. At present there are low or no barriers to entry and this means that healthcare institutions may find themselves dealing with an inexperienced TES or one that is incapable of delivering a compliant service. To mitigate your risk, we recommend that clients choose to only deal with TES providers who belong to a recognised professional body, such as AHASA, where they are required to not only meet minimum compliance standards, enforced by audits, but also comply to a heightened quality assurance programme and subscribe to a Code of Ethics.
