After an on going dispute between Solidarity and Telkom over wages the battle between the trade union and the company will be heading to the Commission for Concilation, Mediation and Arbitration (CCMA) today.

According to a press statement solidarity says that it has done everything possible to resolve the dispute, and Telkom has left them with no other option.

They believe that they must tackle the issue on behalf of their members, who stand to suffer serious financial losses because of Telkom’s reluctance to sort out the matter.

“We believe that our members have lost millions of rands since the beginning of April in salaries because Telkom has not implemented the salary increases in the correct way, that’s why we will dispute this, we believe we can win this case as soon as possible so that our members salaries can be rectified,” says Solidarity spokesperson Jaco Kleynhans.
