The SA Local Government Association has refused to budge from its original offer of a 6.8% wage increase for municipal workers.
This is despite the fact that unions lowered their demand from 18-percent to 10% the end of last week.
As a result, no agreement has been reached between Salga and the SA Municipal Workers’ Union.
Salga spokesperson, Mzwanele Yalwa, says a three-year wage agreement will now be implemented, despite union objections.
Samwu spokesperson, Mario Jacobs says the strike has been suspended but this does not mean that negotiations are closed.
