Numsa headed for motor-sector strike over higher wages

“They offered 4% across the board for forecourt attendants and they offered 3% for cleaners and 3% for cashiers, and this is for the entire duration of the three-year [term]. Their proposal is based on the condition that Numsa must drop all other demands. This is not something that we can accept given that these are some of the lowest-paid workers. A cleaner earns R21 an hour.

But the Mibco DRC is accredited by the CCMA to resolve most labour disputes and its procedures “closely mirror those of the CCMA”. The union, the biggest in the country with over 400,000 members across various sectors including construction, energy, and steel and manufacturing, would continue to avail itself for talks with employers in an effort to find common ground. “We urge employers to come back to the table; they must put something meaningful on the table”.
