#MTBPS2026 SADTU welcomes allocations to strengthen the fight against gender-based violence, including the recruitment of 3 500 social workers. These commitments must translate into timely deployments, adequately resourced institutions & meaningful support for survivors.

#MTBPS2026. As the current public service wage agreement signed in 2024 approaches it’s final leg, SADTU is concerned by the MTBPS’s silence on government’s approach. Public servants deserve clarity & meaningful engagement on wages. #PSCBC @_cosatu @SABCNews @Newzroom405

#MTBPS2026. SADTU says the budget must invest in people, public services & better future for all. The MTBPS prioritises debt stabilisation and expenditure containment while millions face unemployment, rising living costs and worsening inequality. #MTBPS @_cosatu @Treasury_RSA

The Budget Must Deliver The #MTBPS must be more than an accounting exercise. It must demonstrate a firm commitment to decent jobs, poverty alleviation, quality public education and a more equal society. Every learner and educator deserves the resources to thrive. #SADTU

Stand Against Austerity SADTU stands with workers, communities and progressive forces in demanding a budget that puts people before profits, public services before excessive debt-servicing priorities, and social development before austerity. #MTBPS

Public Money Must Serve the People Fiscal sustainability must not come at the expense of education, employment and social development. Austerity that weakens public services deepens inequality. Public finances must advance the constitutional and socioeconomic rights of our people

Reinstate the Teacher Assistant Programme SADTU calls for the reinstatement and sustainable funding of the Teacher Assistant Programme. Young people need meaningful employment opportunities, while schools need the support these assistants provide. Invest in youth and in education

Invest in Early Childhood Development Grade R integration must be backed by adequate funding for infrastructure, learning materials and qualified personnel. Early childhood education is the foundation of lifelong learning. Policy promises must be matched by resources. #MTBPS #ECD
207
Employ Unemployed Teachers Hundreds of qualified teachers remain unemployed while learner numbers continue to rise. SADTU calls for increased funding for teaching posts to employ unemployed educators, reduce overcrowding and improve learning outcomes #MTBPS#Jobs4Teachers @eduint

Relief for Working-Class Communities Rising fuel prices are putting more pressure on households already struggling with the cost of living. The #MTBPS must offer meaningful socioeconomic relief, not austerity measures that deepen poverty and inequality. #MTBPS @Treasury_RSA

A Budget for the People SADTU expects the #MTBPS to shift away from austerity and excessive debt servicing towards a developmental budget that prioritises job creation, poverty alleviation, economic transformation and inclusive growth. People must come first! @Treasury_RSA
