    SABC salary bill to balloon by R100m

    SABC-640

    The SABC is set to spend R100m more on staff salaries and paying board members.

    This is according to the public broadcaster’s new corporate plan for 2015/2016 to 2017/2018, which also says revenues are “constrained” amid advertisers cutting back “as a result of declining TV audiences due to non-performance of critical programming”.

    The corporate plan also highlights that the public broadcaster’s commercial revenues are under pressure owing to tough economic conditions causing advertisers to “reduce their marketing and resultant advertising spend”.

    But the public broadcaster intends going ahead with pay hikes.

    “A 7,5% increase has been included for permanent staff, board fees, freelancers and various temporary staff requirements,” reads the SABC corporate plan document.

    Revenues from SABC TV licence fees are further projected to hit R1bn, according to the corporate plan.

    The SABC’s latest corporate plan comes as four of the six SABC board members who were opposed to the permanent appointment of Hlaudi Motsoeneng as chief operating officer are no longer there.

    SABC board member Bongani Khumalo abruptly resigned in January, Hope Zinde was fired earlier in March and last week the remaining SABC board fired Rachel Kalidass and Ronnie Lubisi. Yet, Krish Naidoo and Vusi Mavuso who were also opposed to Motsoeneng’s permanent appointment remain.  — News24
