The South African Revenue Service (SARS) has reiterated its commitment to resolving the ongoing industrial action with organised labour.
In May, SARS said it did not have the resources to meet the labour demand of CPI plus 7%.This included an across-the-board increase of 1.5% for permanent employees in the bargaining unit, backdated to 1 April 2022.
SARS said: “The slight adjustment to the across-the-board proposal is possible due to projected savings from a delay in recruitment against an initial plan. In the spirit of transparency and a commitment to resolving the dispute, SARS management has decided to allocate the savings towards the increased salary proposal.
The revenue collector said it had noted with concern various isolated incidents of intimidation and violence committed by some strikers.
