The labour department has increased the minimum wage of domestic workers by 7%.
This means that domestic workers living in urban areas will earn R1066, 90 and those in rural areas will earn R865.54.
Despite the increase unions are still unhappy with the 7% increase and demanding a minimum increase of R1500 for those who work 27 hours a week.
The SA Domestic Services and Allied Workers’ Union says that the increase is still too low.
According to a daily newspaper the increase comes into effect from December the 1 to November 30 2007.
