Cosatu welcomes government’s minimum wage proposal
Cosatu is welcoming the government’s proposal of an eight percent increase to the minimum wage.
The trade union federation says the amount is reasonable and will provide significant relief to millions of workers.
Nevertheless, it’s still pushing for at least a 10 percent increase.
“Eight percent is not what Cosatu proposed. We made a submission as Cosatu through the National Minimum Wage Commission for the increase of the CPI plus three percent,” said Cosatu General Secretary Solly Phetoe.
“As Cosatu, we would love that the increase goes up to 10% for this year so that we can then be able to move quickly to the engagement of the living wage.”
