The City of Tshwane has dismissed 55 more staffers in its crackdown against workers partaking in pay protests that have lasted nearly three weeks. The latest dismissal brings the total to 93, the City of Tshwane said on Thursday. Members of the South African Municipal Workers Union have been on strike since July, demanding salary increases. In an earlier order, the SA Local Government Bargaining Council instructed the City to raise workers’ salaries by 5.
The city approached the labour court again last Friday on an urgent basis to enforce the interim interdict. However, on Monday, the court refused to grant the city the contempt order, asking it to identify the striking employees and union leaders instead. “The city has now identified the individuals behind the strike and is finalising its court application,” it said. It plans to file the application on Friday .
