Transnet employees in Mbombela, Mpumalanga and other plants across the province have also joined the nationwide strike demanding wage increments. BothSatawu vows to shut down all Transnet operations: They are demanding an increase of between 12 and 13% but Transnet is offering four percent. Last week, the Labour Court dismissed Transnet’s urgent interdict to have the strike declared illegal.

. They rejected both the 1.5 and 3% wage offer. Employees say the new offer is an insult considering the cost of living is increasing.“During the time of COVID, we were the guys in front line, we were guys supporting whatever the country needed and now three years later they come with 1.5% increase or a 3% increase that is water down where none of your pension or your allowance or medical aid is going to be lifted as well.
