MISA comment - MIBCO wage increase: 1 September 2024 

 

MISA, the Motor Industry Staff Association, received enquiries from its members asking about the MIBCO (Motor Industry Bargaining Council) increases effective from 1 September 2024. Tiekie Mocke, Manager of MISA’s Legal Department, explains the wage increase due from 1 September was published by the Minister of Employment and Labour in the Government Gazette in March 2023, after the majority of parties in MIBCO signed a three-year wage agreement. 

 

There is not one set answer to increases as there are specific provisions and/or exclusions negotiated between signatories to the newly gazetted agreement. It is important to distinguish between the different sectors in the retail motor industry. 

 

MISA members earning above minimum wage as gazetted, will not by default receive a guaranteed increase unless specifically provided for in the Agreement. Guaranteed increases are subject to earnings and dependant on the different sectors in the industry. One such example is sector 6, which includes all dealerships. 

 

The increase on minimum wages from 1 September 2024 will be:

Sector 1:                                                      6%

Sector 5: 

•   Forecourt Attendants:                                6%

•   Cashiers:                                                  4%

•   Chars:                                                      5%

All other Sectors:                                           5%

 

This agreement will expire on 31 August 2025.
