Water plays a key role in the development of a prosperous economy, a healthy population and a sustainable natural environment. Good water management is inevitable for the sustainable growth. Investments are foreseen to offer water supply and proper sanitation to all South African citizens. Assessments show an ageing of workforce and scarcity in the actual operating and maintenance skills. The retirement of experienced employees causes a brain-drain within the water sector.
