Neon dreams - Sunday Morning Lunch w/ Yams & Jams
The Namibia Security Labour Forum (NSLF) has accused some security companies with government contracts of illegally ignoring wage regulations, leading to worker exploitation and skewed competition. At a press briefing in the capital on Thursday, NSLF warned that non-compliant firms could face legal consequences unless they fully implement the Security Enterprises and Security Officers Act of 1998 .
The Forum called on all public institutions, including the Central Procurement Board, to stop awarding tenders to companies that continue to underpay. Since January 1, a phased minimum wage for security guards has been in effect: N$13.50 in 2025, rising to N$16 in 2026 and N$18 in 2027. But many companies are still refusing to comply.
At the event were representatives from the Security Association of Namibia, including National Administrator Celeste Mhunduru, who reaffirmed support for full implementation of the Security Act.
