6. GPW ESTABLISHMENT  As part of the transformation to a Government Component; the Minister approved a new ‘GPW Establishment’  The GPW is the process of migration of all its employees to this new structure  New functions have been created, which did not exist previously such as research and development, strategic management, public relations, legal services, facility management, etc.  The Strategic Plan of GPW 2012-2014 demonstrates that sufficient funds will be available to fill all 698 posts  The new GPW establishment is 698 posts whilst there are currently 530 staff in the employment of GPW

7. GPW ESTABLISHMENT continued  These posts are funded entirely from the revenue GPW generates through its printing services  The Strategic Plan 2012 – 2014 has been presented to the DG of Home Affairs; and will soon be presented to the Minister for approval; and subsequently to the Portfolio Committee of Home Affairs  Uncompetitive remuneration structure is lagging on average by between 30% to 50% (Especially on specialist positions) compared with the local printing industry. This mainly applies to the technical grades, where significant shortage of skills exists.  Special dispensation is needed for the GPW to succeed as a Government Component to attract and retain skills in the core business, finance and other critical occupations. An amount of R20 million has been provided in the budget for a special dispensation.
