Mozambique’s state expenditure on salaries and wages grew by 4.2% to September 2024, compared to the same period in 2023, to more than 152,916 million meticais (€2,266 million).
The adoption of the Single Salary Table (TSU) in Mozambique since 2022 has practically doubled the minimum wage in the direct administration of the state to 8,758 meticais (€133), according to a Mozambiquan government document.
The note also highlights that “other employees and agents of the State who received salaries below the average” also saw “their salaries rise in value, in particular those in general regime careers”, and that those who “had remunerations above the average did not receive any rise in value, taking into account that the classification is not an administrative act of promotion, progression, career change or increase in salaries in the State apparatus”.
The document recalls that the TSU was part of the “set of reforms of the Public Administration” implemented by the Government to “revalue and professionalize the civil servants who work in the direct and indirect administration of the State” and thus “ensure the continuous improvement of the provision of quality public services”, also allowing “correction of the imbalances that characterized the remuneration system” of the direct and indirect administration of the state.
