The Labour Court will only hand down judgment on Comair’s bid to interdict Numsa's strike on Tuesday meaning the union will have to hold off until then.
JOHANNESBURG – The National Union of Metalworkers of South Africa says it is undeterred by a Labour Court ruling against its strike and will continue to fight for equal pay for its members.
Numsa served Comair with a 48-hour strike notice earlier this week and was due to stop work on Friday.Numsa spokesperson Phakamile Hlubi-Majola says: “We made a very progressive proposal where over a three-year period they would be able to deal with this problem and this is, by the way, a problem that affects 23 employees.
“So, we don’t understand why Comair is so completely inflexible and so close-minded in terms of finding a progressive solution to this problem.”
