The Department of Public Service and Administration (DPSA) has committed to implementing the Wage Negotiation Agreement, in a statement issued on Thursday, 19 August 2021. It stated that the Public Service Coordinating Bargaining Council (PSCBC) Resolution 1 of 2021, aimed at providing improvements to conditions of service in public service, recently concluded.

These will include the payment of non-pensionable monthly cash allowances, with effect from 1 April 2021, to be implemented on or before 15 September 2021. Levels 1 – 5 will be allocated an allowance of R1 220.00, levels 6 – 7 will be allocated R1 352.00, levels 8 – 9 will be allocated R1 450.00, levels 10 – 11 will be allocated R1 640.00, and level 12 will receive R1 695.00.
