The National Employer’s Association of
South Africa said the National Union of Metalworkers of South Africa clearly
does not understand that a strike will not only lead to the loss of production
and the income of workers, but will also affect the country’s image as an
investment destination.
This as Numsa will be embarking on a
nationwide strike on the 1st of July demanding a 12 percent wage
increase.
Neasa Spokesperson Sya van der Walt-Potgieter
said we feel that NUMSA walk out of negotiations without giving much attention
to the serious issues that Neasa have put on the table.
Sya van der Walt-Potgieter said this
clearly shows that their not serious about growing the economy,job creation and
creating an environment that could accommodate millions of people who are
unemployed to save South Africa
"We really hope that we can be able to sort
this out and hopefully the strike doesn’t last too long van der Walt-Potgieter
added.
