During this three-month period, basic salaries or wages paid to employees increased by R18.6bn from R631.8bn in September 2020 to R650.4bn in December 2020. “This was largely due to increases in the following industries: community services, business services, trade, manufacturing, construction, transport, mining and electricity.”Stats SA said bonus and overtime payments decreased by R13.2bn between December 2019 and December 2020.

However, between September and December 2020, those who had returned to the job space increased their bonus and overtime earning. Stats SA recorded an increase from R48.8bn in bonus and overtime payment to R90.5bn in these three months. “This was largely due to increases in the following industries: business services, trade, manufacturing, community services, transport, construction and electricity.”
