President Cyril Ramaphosa says the new Eskom board is expected to undertake a full assessment of the efficiency of managers and operators at the power utility.
The President was speaking during a question and answer session in the National Assembly on Thursday.
“The Group CEO reports to the Eskom board, which conducts performance reviews against agreed targets. The new Eskom board was appointed on 1 October and will be given the space to assess what needs to be done to improve the efficiency of the existing plant and the effectiveness of the management and operators at all levels.
“There is no State entity that has had as many CEOs as Eskom… We need to have a proper assessment of everybody at Eskom. We also need to have an assessment of our various power stations. That process is underway. The President said plans to upskill workers and reintroduce experienced former Eskom employees are underway to address the current load shedding challenges.
