Works and transport minister Veikko Nekundi on Thursday threatened to terminate the contract of Youth Security Services if it fails to pay its employees by 27 February.
The company, which guards several ministry assets, allegedly breached the minimum wage agreement signed with the Security Association of Namibia following the implementation of new national rates earlier this year.
Security wages increased from N$13.50 to N$16 per hour.
“During a meeting on Wednesday, I directed the company to pay all its employees guarding the ministry’s assets by Friday and if it fails to do so the company stands to risk its contract being terminated,” Nekundi says in a statement.
Nekundi warns that companies providing services to the ministry will be dealt with in line with applicable laws if they fail to enforce the gazetted national minimum wage.
