Per New Vision 9th March 2011
The Ministry of Public Service has approved a new salary structure for Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA), staff the New Vision online has learnt.
President Yoweri Museveni approved the salary
structure in December last year, in which the lowest paid employee (tea
girl) earns sh1.1m per month. The public service ministry was tasked to
prepare an administrative structure for the Authority.
Under the structure, Jennifer Musisi is entitled to a monthly salary of sh36m while the Lord Mayor bags sh16m.
The deputy executive director and other directors
earn between shs22m, the deputy Lord Mayor sh11m; division mayors
sh10.7m and their deputies shs8.2m.Division councilors are entitled to
sh3.5m while district (LC5) councilors earn sh4.45m.
The release of the new administrative structure paves way for the recruitment of over 1,000 employees by KCCA.
KCCA spokesperson, Peter Kaujju said the Authority
would roll out a programme to cater for employees who will opt to leave
the institution. The Authority will, however, allow existing employees
to reapply for the available positions.
"We have waited for that approval for a long time and the institution needs staff so that work can move," Kaujju said.
The orientation of staff to the new structure will take place on Friday at the City Hall Gardens.
In a memo from the KCCA executive director Jennifer
Musisi to KCCA staff dated March 7, she wrote: "This is to inform you
that the Ministry of Public Service has approved the KCCA organization
structure, staffing and salary structure."
