The South African Municipal Workers’ Union Cape Metro branch, together with communities affected by poor service delivery in the city, will be striking on Tuesday, 28 August 2007.
"The strike is basically in response to the unilateral restructuring of the city, which will have a negative impact on workers conditions of service," says SAMWU Western Cape Provincial Secretary, Andre Adams.
Adams adds that the strike also relates to the National Bargaining Council of the city. The unilateral restructuring will also have an impact on service delivery.
"The Union is embarking on action against this unilateral restructuring, and we are also busy mobilising communities to come out in support of the union in this matter," says Adams.
The Cape Metro branch consists of just over 10 000 members. The strike will start from Kaisersgracht and end at the Civic Centre in Cape Town.
