The 'go-slow' strike led to delays in the dropping off and collection of goods, hurting the automotive, citrus, meat, textiles and electronic sectors.

The ‘go-slow’ strike led to delays in the dropping off and collection of goods, hurting the automotive, citrus, meat, textiles and electronic sectors.

Workers embarked on the protest more than two weeks ago to show their anger over payment of a short-term incentive and other related matters such as equipment failure and transport. The state-owned freight and rail company said productivity was returning to normal following a court interdict against the strike. Operations have apparently improved at the Durban Container Terminal and Port of Cape Town.

“Similarly, vessel owners and operators servicing the container industry have also been impacted and Transnet continues to engage with them to prioritise cargo.”
