2012: SACCAWU remains the trade union with which the group has a formal relationship. In the past year SACCAWU membership rose from 8% to 11,3% of eligible employees. The purchase of Prestige Clothing brings with it a SACTWU membership of 687 in addition to current membership of 62 elsewhere in the group.
During the year under review
the guideline given by the
remuneration committee for
increases to all staff (other than
unionised staff which are subject
to negotiation with the union)
was set at 7%. In addition to this
benchmark increase, appropriate
promotional increases were given to relevant staff. In instances where the market benchmarking indicated that base pay was below the appropriate level, out-of-line adjustments were made to base pay. The guideline increase to all
staff (other than unionised staff) effective from 1 April 2012 approved by the remuneration
committee was 6,5%.
2013: SACTWU membership at the Maitland and Caledon operations of Prestige has increased marginally from 687 to 690 in relation to last year, and has risen from 62 to 71 in the group’s other divisions. |
