No. SPPSA is a political party registered with the Electoral Commission of South Africa (IEC). Unions negotiate with employers; we aim to change the laws and policies that affect all workers and communities.
No. SPPSA was founded by and for security personnel, but membership is open to every South African citizen aged 16 or older who supports our goals — including workers, business owners, students, unemployed people and youth.
Entirely by our members’ fees. We do not accept donations, sponsorships or funding from businesses, individuals, foreign entities or interest groups. This keeps our decisions independent.
We want properly trained and vetted private security officers to be able to serve in the SAPS police reserve, with state-funded stipends, so they can officially support crime prevention in their communities. Within SPPSA, only security personnel members in good standing will be nominated.
An economy where businesses, transport and services can operate safely around the clock. It means more trading hours, more shifts and more jobs, supported by improved safety.
We are currently established in Gauteng, where we are preparing to contest local government elections, and plan to expand to other provinces before launching a national campaign
SPPSA is led by its Founding President, supported by an Executive Leadership team and an Interim Governing Council. To protect the founding mission, the Constitution provides for a ten-year leadership stability period, after which the party will move to elected leadership structures and five-yearly national conferences.
You can join SPPSA and register as a voter with the IEC from age 16, and you can vote from age 18.
We collect only what we need to manage your membership and keep you informed, in line with the Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA). Read our Privacy Policy for details.
