Tshwane approves special leave policy for employees to undergo Ukuthwasa

# The City of Tshwane has approved a special leave policy for employees to undergo Ukuthwasa, the sacred initiation journey into becoming a traditional healer. The metro says for many years, public servants have had to choose between their calling and their careers. It says the initiation journey is a profound spiritual transformation that requires time, support, and respect. The metro adds that this cannot be squeezed between annual leave days or misunderstood as mere absence.
