Included to benefit from this move are individuals working in vulnerable sectors, such as farming and domestic work.

“By ensuring that farmworkers, domestic workers, and Expanded Public Works Programme (EPWP) participants receive fair pay, the government is making progress in reducing wage disparities,” said labour market specialist, John Botha.

“Employers who embrace these changes may benefit from improved employee morale, reduced turnover, and enhanced productivity.”
