Joburg insources 900 security guards on Workers Day
Johannesburg Mayor Herman Mashaba on Wednesday thanked the Democratic Alliance coalition partners for working together in bringing dignity to the lives of nearly 1,000 security guards.
Mashaba thanked councillor Donald Mabunda of the Economic Freedom Fighters for his commitment to assisting this program, as well as coalition partners who have supported this program from the beginning. “Insourcing represents a departure from the past practices of the City of Johannesburg which saw over R700 million being paid annually to politically connected security companies. Each security guard earned under R4,000 per month, while the security companies received more than R12,000 per month per security guard.”
