FAQs
Why is this project taking so long to implement
The SPS is a far-reaching public service transformation process. Extensive research needs to be undertaken in terms of conditions of service, remuneration across and within the spheres and such far-reaching reform requires a meaningful and extensive stakeholder engagement and consultation process.
In terms of the government Programme of Action the Bill is scheduled to be tabled in Parliament in April 2008. The bill is available on the DPSA website.
Has there been adequate consultation on the SPS?
The SPS project is undertaking an extensive consultation, stakeholder engagement and communications programme. There is on-going consultation with labour, NEDLAC and is holding workshops with a broad range of stakeholders.
Will employees in local government be adversely affected by the SPS?
The conditions of service of employees in municipalities will not be less favourable as a result of the SPS.
One of the aims of the SPS is to align the conditions of service within the three spheres of government, where appropriate, to ensure mobility of employees and to promote stability in employment.
Employees transferred within the Single Public Service will not suffer any reduction in salary and their service will be regarded as continuous, in line with the Labour Relations Act principle that the conditions of service of transferring staff may not become less favourable.
