A possible end to the wage strike by over 3 000 Southern Clothing and Textile Workers’ Union members in the cotton textile sector is looming.
The workers have been on strike for
three weeks demanding an 8.75 percent wage increase and a further 2.5 percent
on peripheral rights issues.
Sactwu’s National Coordinator for
the cotton textile sector
Christopher Soetsane said basically
what happen was a recommended 8,5 percent in the first year and both parties
have agreement that they are going to take the recommended wage offer. The
process is expected to be finalized soon hopefully by Monday.
