We are calling on the employer to give us a meaningful offer, that’s it,” explains Tshemese.Meanwhile, the National Education, Health and Allied Workers’ Union says the South African Revenue Service claim that it has no money to spend on its workers’ increased salaries is a blatant lie.is continuing.
