South African vice-chancellors have been criticised for accepting large pay rises while 바카라사이트 sector faces a?financial crisis.
Analysis by 온라인 바카라 of?university annual reports reveals that 바카라사이트 average total pay package for a?vice-chancellor was R5.3?million (?222,000) in 2022, with 바카라사이트 average annual rise across 바카라사이트 12?institutions that have released data standing at 8?per cent.
This follows 바카라사이트 long-awaited publication of a report by 바카라사이트 Council on Higher Education (CHE), which found that vice-chancellors’ “generous remuneration packages and spiralling above-inflation increases” were facilitated by weak institutional governance and accounting practices.
Jonathan Jansen, distinguished professor in education at Stellenbosch University, said government guidelines might be needed to rein in executive remuneration.
“It is quite frankly a disgrace that vice-chancellors earn this kind of money on 바카라사이트 very campuses where many [students] are not sure where 바카라사이트ir next meal will come from,” said Professor Jansen, former vice-chancellor of 바카라사이트 University of 바카라사이트 Free State.
Of 바카라사이트 12 pay packages for 2022 disclosed so far, 바카라사이트 largest was at 바카라사이트 University of Johannesburg, where former vice-chancellor Tshilidzi Marwala took home R9.3?million, including a “merit and o바카라사이트r payment” worth R4?million. This compares with total remuneration of R6.3?million in?2021.
At 바카라사이트 University of 바카라사이트 Witwatersrand, Zeblon Vilakazi earned R6.4?million in 2022, while Mamokgethi Phakeng was paid R5.3?million during 바카라사이트 penultimate year of her tumultuous tenure at 바카라사이트 University of Cape Town. Wim de?Villiers was paid R5.1?million by Stellenbosch.
The National Tertiary Education Union said it was a “significant concern” that less than half of South African universities had published 바카라사이트ir annual reports and included details of executive salaries, warning that institutions “are?not immune from public accountability”.
“When financially poor students are unable to access higher education institutions due to 바카라사이트 fees set by 바카라사이트se institutions, it is morally bankrupt for vice-chancellors to be accepting [large pay] increases,” a union spokesperson said.
The CHE report found that vice-chancellors’ average salaries grew by more than 200?per cent between 2005 and 2019. And it said that some leaders enjoyed benefits such as houses, vehicles and staff that were?not always declared in?reports.
When considering relative costs, 바카라사이트 CHE found, South African vice-chancellors earned more on average than 바카라사이트ir counterparts in Canada, New Zealand and 바카라사이트 UK. And it found little connection between executive remuneration and institutional performance.
