Every domestic/farm worker must be granted wage increases of at least 8% on 1 November 2003 and on 1 November 2004.
The wage increases in terms of sub-clause (1) must be calculated on the domestic/farm worker’s actual wage in the preceding month.
If the annual increase in the Consumer Price Index reported by Statistics South Africa six weeks before a wage increase in terms of this clause comes into effect is 10% or higher, domestic/farm workers will be entitled to receive a wage increase equivalent to the increase in the Consumer Price Index.
Any wage increase in excess of 8% required in terms of sub-clause (3) must be published in the Government Gazette as an amendment to this sectoral determination.
