came out during the talks to engage and greet workers and gave a brief update. He says they have not yet completed talks because management wants a union, National Transport Movement to participate in negotiations, but they are not involved in the strike.
Meanwhile, some shuttle operators at the East London Airport in the Eastern Cape say they are counting the losses due to the ongoing strike. They are demanding 8% salary increases while SAA is offering 5.9% . Shuttle operator Jingles Gxoyiya and airline passenger Nomonde Silimenla have called on both parties to find a lasting solution to the matter. “As a shuttle operator you set yourself a target per day; now with the strike happening you find that the number of clients you had anticipated and the amount of money coming in is reduced drastically. The employees and employers should find each other really quick.
NUMSA Secretary for the East London region, Mandla Mazwai says they will continue with their strike action until their demands are met. “And also we are saying no to this planned retrenchment because all these decisions, mismanagement, it can’t be the fault of the workers. Now when they are restructuring, all these things are affecting our members. Nothing is being said about middle management and executives and their huge packages. As workers we say no until our demands are met.”
