There is a perception amongst consumers that the salaries of Erongo RED staff are too high resulting in electricity prices to increase. Can Erongo RED please respond?
The salaries for Erongo RED staff have been compared and are in line with salary surveys that have been conducted by professional organisations in Namibia as well as in South Africa. The salaries are thus not excessive. Staff members who were migrated from the municipalities retained their current salary as they could not be punished with a lesser pay.
