Dr Bandile Masuku says the department is working towards ensuring that most of the health workers who did not receive their salaries are paid by Thursday.

Gauteng Health MEC Bandile Masuku has reportedly expressed his disappointment at the news that some health workers in the province have not been paid their salaries.It was reported that Masuku said the matter would be resolved and that the department is working towards ensuring that by Thursday at least the majority of those who had not been paid their salaries “will be sorted out”, with the rest paid by the beginning of next week.

“But it is disappointing that our officials dropped the ball when we are in this particular period,” the MEC was quoted as saying. He said the failure to pay salaries would affect the morale of the health workers when it is needed the most in the wake of Covid-19.

This is very bad. How can they not pay the people’s salary. Sometimes I wonder how our government officials .. I mean u can miss anything but not people’s salary.

Yip Cuba has their salaries

Disgusting!

An abomination! How on earth could that be possible? Instead of increasing their salaries even more at this period, you dare not pay what's due to them? Shame !

MEC please be informed that some nurses in the Gauteng Province are behaving like doctors and wait for doctors to do nursing duties. Besides the issue of late payment of salaries sometimes. Please take lessons from KZN system

Is Gov officially broke? Is it like Cha Ching Cha Ching there's no money for the bling... Yoh Yoh Yoh What about other gov depts? Gov has duplicated so many portfolios. Is there money to pay all gov employees?

Hahahaha....but you blow 500mil on the Cubans.

This gov. is killing us with high blood pressure.

That's when everything will go to the dogs. In fact they should be working tax free no PAYE for a year. Governments' committed support to support our committed health workers. tito_mboweni CyrilRamaphosa PresidencyZA DrZweliMkhize SABCNews

But the Govt can spend R400 Mil on Cuban Drs? Epic Failure!!!
