[Ministry of Justice and Labour Relations @MOJLRNAM]

Good day . The Ministry has no power to set wages and salaries of employees. It is the responsibility of the employer and employees or their representatives(trade unions) to negotiate and agree collectively.

I met meme Aguste a few weeks ago and she said they have been growing fresh spinach but to find out that she doesn’t have customers makes me sad. This bunch cost less than N$ 100.00

She has a garden in Goreagab and she needs more funds to set up her garden properly.

The workshop looked at promoting decent working environments for youth in Africa and further encouraging the creation of new opportunities for decent wage employment for young women and men across multiple African nations.

[GAN Namibia @GANNamibia]

With the high youth unemployment rate in Namibia, discussions are now slowly shifting towards the importance of creating decent jobs.
