Liberated Metalworkers Union of South Africa called on Denel’s chief executive officer Danie du Toit to resign after the state defence firm failed to pay their employees for May amid the Covid-19 pandemic.while wages for June and July were at risk.
The union said they were disappointed on the “reckless” manner in how the matter was being handled by Denel management and Du Toit “as there was no proper consultation with organised labour on the matter”. “While we concede that Denel has liquidity issues, but some of those operational divisional executives and senior management who were part of the causes of this current liquidity issues are still Denel employees and no consequential management has been enforced,” the union said.
“It is also our concern that government hostility measures has a direct impact in sustainability of Denel, this was evident on the report tabled Parliament portfolio committee on defence and military veterans on 27 May 2020.
