Ladies and gentlemen, as we conclude this important BRICS Employment Working Group (BEWG) meeting, I want to express my deep appreciation for your active participation and valuable contributions over the past two days.
We embarked on this journey several months ago, and it has been a remarkable one. From Misty Hills to Port Alfred and Geneva, we have come together to address the critical issues in the world of work, guided by the all-encompassing theme of ‘Ensuring Decent Work, Dignity and Respect for All’.

Thank you Chair,
Honourable Host Minister Nxesi,
Honourable Ministers, Excellencies,
Distinguished delegates,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
As we meet here today, the economic outlook remains highly uneven and uncertain.
While global food and energy prices have fallen from their peak levels, we continue to see a rise in the cost of living in many countries.
There’s also a risk of financial distress for vulnerable nations, potentially leading to a debt crisis.
Protocol:
- Our Programme Director; Honourable Boitumelo Moloi, Deputy Minister of Employment and Labour, Republic of South Africa
- MEC for Economic Development, Tourism and Environmental Affairs, KwaZulu-Natal; Mr Siboniso Duma
