Memorandum on recommendations

- Title
- Memorandum on recommendations
- Description
- It is a welcome move that the Minister has ordered an investigation in the security services within 2 years of the last amendment which was in November 1977. Regular adjustment to minimum wages ere imperative in a situation of rising cost of living. In the past an interval of about 4 years have lapsed before a new investigation is begun. Another positive aspect of this investigation is that the conditions are being investigated simultaneously throughout the major industrial areas in South Africa. This will help in bringing about a uniformity in the conditions of a group of employee 3 who ail do basically the same type of work. It is regretted that the scope of the investigation only includes undertakings in which employers and employees ere associated for the purpose of guarding, protecting etc. In she past this has meant that a large group of security guards are left out completely from the purview of the investigation and are hence not covered by any industrial legislation especially in regards to hours of work.
