Municipal workers set to embark on strike

By Kim Saulse

130 000 municipal workers affiliated to the South African Municipal Workers Union will embark on nationwide strike action on the 12th of April.

The Union says in a statement it has lost patience with the South African Local Government Association’s delays, evasions and irresponsible attitude with regard to local government.

It lists the underpayment of municipal workers as a grievance amongst others.

Neither the Union nor the Association were available for comment.
