‘Indefinite’ SAA strike to go ahead

The strike at SAA will go ahead on Friday from 4am, trade unions said on Thursday afternoon.

Following a meeting with management on Thursday afternoon, the National Union of Metalworkers and the SA Cabin Crew Association said they had rejected an improved wage offer of 5.9%. Both unions are asking for an 8% increase and have a raft of other demands, including that all services be “insourced” and the proposed retrenchments do not go ahead.
