JOHANNESBURG - The Department of Public Service and Administration has confirmed that civil servants will receive a 4.7 percent salary hike from April.
This is part of a two-year wage deal that was signed last year which guarantees a wage increase of 7.5 percent for 2023/2024 and an inflation-linked increase for 2024/2025.
Chief Economist at the Efficient Group, Dawie Roodt, unpacks this further.
