Pretoria – Cash-strapped City of Tshwane will disburse millions of rand to its estimated 25 000 employees this festive season as part of the payouts linked to a benchmarking agreement.
The Pretoria News was told the decision to settle the benchmarking payments was made last week and would be communicated to the unions and workers during the course of this week.
The decision came on the back of concerns by mayor Randall Williams that the City had dipped into a R4.4 billion deficit while under the control of the previous administrators.
