Core values of Witzenberg Municipality
As municipal employees, we ascribe to the values as underpinned by Batho Pele, a Sesotho word which means “People First”. This initiative was launched in 1997 to transform the Public Service at all levels. Batho Pele was launched because post 1994 South Africa inherited a public service that was not people-friendly and lacked the skills and attitudes to meet the developmental challenges facing the country.

Batho Pele is based on the following eight principles:

• Consultation

All citizens should be consulted about their needs;

• Standards

All citizens should know what service to expect;

• Redress

All citizens should be offered an apology and solution when standards are not met;

• Access

All citizens should have equal access to services;

• Courtesy

All citizens should be treated courteously;

• Information

All citizens are entitled to full, accurate information;

• Openness and transparency

All citizens should know how decisions are made and departments are run and

• Value for money

All services provided should offer value for money.
