A new proposal by the Department of Employment and Labour’s National Minimum Wage Commission means domestic workers in South Africa could receive a significant and mandatory pay hike.
South Africa’s minimum wage may have seen an increase, but the same can’t be said for the salaries of many domestic workers.
If you’re an employer that only pays your domestic worker the legally required minimum wage, then you might want to make a note of the changes effective March 1, 2021.
