 PRESS STATEMENT


UNDERSTANDING THE LAGOS STREET SWEEPING PROGRAM: STRUCTURE, REMUNERATION, AND COMMITMENT TO WORKER WELFARE


The Lagos State street sweeping program plays a vital role in maintaining a clean and healthy environment. The Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA) oversees this program, ensuring that sweeping operations run efficiently and that workers receive fair remuneration and adequate support.


Street sweepers are engaged through private companies under structured contracts, with their responsibilities and entitlements clearly defined. These private companies are responsible for directly paying their engaged sweepers. Following a recent wage review, sweeper salaries have been adjusted to align with the national minimum wage and are proportionate to their work schedule, which consists of four-hour daily shifts. Under this structure:

• Sweepers earn ₦40,000 per month

• Supervisors earn ₦50,000 per month


This arrangement provides workers with financial stability while allowing flexibility for other economic activities outside their assigned shifts.


Commitment to Worker Welfare


LAWMA is committed to improving the welfare and working conditions of street sweepers and has implemented several initiatives to enhance their safety, well-being, and efficiency. These include:

• Regular health and safety training to ensure best practices in their daily operations.

• Reclassification of sweeping routes to prioritize worker safety and security.

• Accident and emergency insurance coverage to provide medical support in case of work-related incidents.

• Provision of uniforms and necessary work implements to ensure dignity and efficiency in their duties.


Addressing Concerns and Ensuring Compliance


LAWMA takes the concerns of street sweepers seriously and remains committed to ensuring they receive fair treatment in line with agreed standards. Any reports of salary discrepancies or contractual violations are promptly investigated, and corrective measures are enforced where necessary.


The success of the street sweeping program relies on the dedication of these essential workers, and LAWMA will continue to uphold policies that ensure their welfare while enhancing service delivery for a cleaner Lagos.


Signed:

Management

Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA)
