The Democratic Nursing Organisation of South Africa has raised its concern regarding the 2015 wage negotiations. 

Minister of Finance Nhlanhla Nene over the weekend made a remark that a public wage increase of more than 1% of inflation would be at the cost of jobs.  

Denosa Spokesperson Sibongiseni Delihlazo said the remarks by the minister will in a negative way harden the attitude of workers who have questioned collective bargaining.

Delihlazo said the remarks by the minister while the negotiations are still on-going are very unfortunate and it is unfair.  We feel it prompts what government can possibly put in place. 

“Now the minister is negotiating with the unions via the media which we do not find to be in the interest of finding a lasting solution to this matter” Delihlazo added.
