RUSTENBURG HERALD - RUSTENBURG – Rustenburg Local Municipality has informed its employees that the Municipality has officially implemented a Grade 7 salary scale for employees previously positioned at Grade 6, in accordance with the improved organisational structure, applicable collective agreements, and relevant labour legislation.
“This implementation represents a significant step towards improving the livelihoods, financial security, and morale of affected employees.
The regrading acknowledges the increasing responsibilities and demands placed on workers and ensures that their renumeration more accurately reflects the work they perform, which will go a long way in ensuring that the municipality lives up to its vision of ‘A smart and environmentally friendly city, where all communities enjoy a high quality of life’.”
RLM also said employees will benefit from improved salary scales, enhanced benefits, and greater job recognition, which will contribute positively to their ability to support their families, meet daily living costs, and plan for a more stable future.
Meanwhile the African National Congress in the North West Province has welcomed and applauded the successful job grading adjustment for the workers.
“This long-overdue development represents a significant victory for the workers and a clear demonstration of the commitment to improving the working conditions, dignity and livehoods of municipal workers,” ANC North West said in a statement released on Wednesday, 14 January.
