City of Johannesburg Mayor Mpho Phalatse says the multi-party government will engage unions SAMWU and IMATU on how quickly the other phases of the salary disparities can be implemented.

The Politically Facilitated Agreement was entered into in April 2016. Phalatse says the agreement was partially implemented due to budgetary constraints.

“But on the 19th of August this year the City under the Joburg multi-party government signed an agreement with both SAMWU and IMATU, agreeing to proceed with the continuation of the full implementation of the PFA. Now according to this agreement, the implementation will be in phases but in spite of the budget constraints, the first payment has already been made.

Roads in and around the City of Johannesburg were blocked off as the special council sitting was set to get under way. Members of the South African Municipal Workers’ Union have brought Braamfontein in Johannesburg to a standstill, as they demand that Mayor Mpho Phalatse urgently address their wage issues.
