Comprehensive plan to ameliorate power crisis

Overtime capping

Nhaca stressed however that no effort will be spared in achieving minimization of overtime expenditure.“Wewill be using available expenditure for financing prioritized posts in the knowledge that KwaDukuza has a record of overspending on overtime. This has been our commitment at ensuring that overtime costs are minimized considering the fact that we have contractors on the ground who

Part of the proposed plan, Nhaca elaborated, was for Council to consider critical posts within the electrical department, with the introduction of the shift system being the ultimate end goal.

KwaDukuza Mayor Lindile Nhaca is taking steps to ensure that unplanned electricity outages become a thing of the past. This comes after the area has been experiencing frequent unplanned outages, exacerbated by severe loadshedding in the past few days.

Nhaca believes there is a need to build more capacity for the electrical department.“Aspart of my oversight responsibilities in the wake of the outages last Sunday, 11 September 2022, I visited the affected substations accompanied by senior officials and on Monday, 12 September 2022, I convened an urgent meeting with certain council office bearers, the Municipal Manager, and senior officials and I also had a subsequent meeting with technicians from the Electricity Department in a bid to take stock of events which led to outages and to get a full sense of clarity on the extent of the“Frommatter.this whole exercise, I was also able to establish that the outages were a direct result of a technical oversight that is attributed to the ongoing load shedding which in principle requires human capacity from the point of supply since the system is not automated and therefore requires manual switching. In the case of the weekend, this did not happen. The bulk of the problem then rests on the shoulders of Council to consider beefing-up human capacity in the electricity business unit to ensure that

we have technicians deployed across sub-stations to address uncertainties,” Nhaca said.

Reports have also been making rounds about municipal technicians being on an “unofficial go slow” to attend to network failures, due to a dispute with the municipality over overtime capping.

To this end, a special virtual Council meeting was convened last week to consider a new comprehensive plan that Nhaca hopes will ease the crisis.

The Act prescribes that an employee must work at least forty (40) hours per month. In that sense, we will be ensuring that we adhered to the following:

“We also wish to caution members of the public to refrain from joining those who are using this challenge as an opportunity to sow divisions between the community and members of the council.

“There has also been misinformation about the genesis of our challenges. This could have been created by inadequate communication from council which is something that we highly regret and will be working towards improving. We would like to urge members of the public to consider following official municipal communication platforms on social media and communication from their ward councillors.

“We are committed to ensuring that the electricity grid remains stable based on our contingency plans that we have looked at in the wake of the outages whilst in pursuit of a long-standing solution,” the Mayor stated.

Heritage Day on 24 September recognises and celebrates the cultural wealth of our nation. South Africans celebrate the day by remembering the cultural heritage of the many cultures that make up the population of South Africa. Various events are staged throughout the country to commemorate this day.Living heritage is the foundation of all communities and an essential source of identity and continuity. Aspects of living heritage include: cultural tradition, oral history, performance, ritual, popular memory, skills and techniques, indigenous knowledge system and the holistic approach to nature, society and social relationships. In South Africa the term “intangible cultural heritage” is used interchangeably with the term “living heritage”. Living heritage plays an important role in promoting cultural diversity, social cohesion, reconciliation, peace and economic development. In every community there are living human treasures who possess a high degree of knowledge, skills and history pertaining to different aspects of diverse living heritage. It is therefore important for South Africans to reclaim, restore and preserve these various aspects of living heritage to accelerate the use of living heritage to address challenges communities are facing today.
