Standoff between MultiChoice and tech union continues busrep

JOHANNESBURG - The standoff between pay TV provider MultiChoice and the Information Technology Communication Union continues after a meeting between executives of both organisations on Wednesday failed to break the impasse. “It is like two bulls in a kraal, the chief executive said he wants to go apply his mind to some new information he has come up with.

The core of the dispute is whether or not MultiChoice, which has recently given notice to retrench more than 2 000 workers, was going about the matter procedurally after it reportedly issued letters and a voluntary package offer to employees without consulting the union. Mothelo said the union would from last night consult with its membership at MultiChoice over whether to apply pressure through pickets or a full-blown strike.

For its part, MultiChoice has said it was pressing ahead with the retrenchment process and engaging with workers on that process.
