As a trade union, the PSA's principal purpose is to regulate the relationship between employers and employees. The PSA creates a collective bargaining leverage for its members, and provides a service to them by:

• Negotiating fair terms of remuneration and representing their interests in various bargaining councils.
• Protecting their service benefits (e.g. medical aid, pension and housing subsidies).
• Addressing issues such as fair and reasonable working conditions, hours of work and leave entitlements.
• Protecting the rights of members by harnessing its professional, legal resources to defend them in situations of unfair
 labour practice or infringement of constitutional rights.
