eThekwini set to spend R40m to discipline 300 staff | Daily News

Durban - THE eThekwini Municipality will spend about R40million to get disciplinary processes in 300 cases against some of its employees under way. However, staff at the city’s legal and human resources departments, who asked not to be named for fear of reprisal, are unhappy with the use of Section 36 to appoint an accounting firm to handle the process and an independent person to chair the proceedings - at a daily rate of R7 500.

Section 36 is used in urgent cases and allows the city to bypass the tender procedure to appoint a company. The staff argued that the budget of more than R18 million to conduct legal research during the proceedings was proof that the company had no legal expertise. A proposal from the city manager’s operations office addressed to the bid adjudication committee dated November14, and signed by two senior officials and a senior manager, detailed how much it would cost the taxpayer.

Dont they have their own Labour relations managers? What are the people in those positions paid for then?

Just to give them verbal warning.

April fool is still a tad far guys.

You can’t make this staff up ...
