The National Education, Health and Allied Workers' Union have intensified their strike action today by shutting down all service delivery points in the Western Cape.
NEHAWU went on a full blown strike since yesterday and are currently picketing at Groote Schuur and Tygerberg Hospitals.
All Khayelitsha and Gugulethu’s service delivery point, most of the home affairs and department of labour offices in the province have been closed down.
Planes arriving at Cape Town International Airport will be left stranded with no Customs Officials at the Customs Office at Home Affairs.
Tygerberg and Groote Schuur hospital operated at about 50% capacity on Thursday.
NEHAWU Provincial Secretary Soraya Jawordeen said “Members of the community have been asked to stay away from the service delivery sites. For those who find themselves in a life or death situation, will have to negotiate entry with marshals at picketing lines.”
