The National Union Of Metal Workers Of South Africa, (NUMSA) representing 70, 000 workers working in garages, components, workshops and automotives sectors will be marching today in Sandton, Gauteng province.
This march forms part of the organisational strategy to exert pressure to the captains of the motor industry to accede to workers demands for improved conditions of employment and decent wages.
This march will be taking place following the victory of NUMSA in Court late last night after successfully interdicting the police for their refusal to issue the union with the permit.
NUMSA believes their victory last night was their way to stop what they believe to be an abuse of state organs by the ruling class to silence and deny workers their constitutional rights to assemble and embark on protected industrial actions.
