Various unions in the security sector have proposed to the government a gradual increase in the statutory minimum wage for security workers.

This is after it was announced recently that all workers should earn at least a minimum wage of N$18 per hour as of 1st January 2025.

The Ministry of Labour, Industrial Relations, and Employment Creation has embarked on a countrywide roadshow to educate the public on the newly set minimum wage, which comes into effect early next year.

The targeted roadshow took place at Okalongo in the Omusati Region.
