The 2023 Eskom wage negotiations started on the 19th April 2023, at Cedarwood Park (Woodmead, Johannesburg) and will run over three rounds, up to the end of May 2023. We can confirm that in all three unions at Eskom NUM, NUMSA and Solidarity have submitted their wage demands to the employer and are currently participating in the 1st round of wage negotiations that started this week on Wednesday and will end today. Eskom has tabled an offer of 3,75% wage increase. Eskom has rejected our demands and further said that the conditions of services must remain unchanged. All the three unions have rejected Eskom's offer of 3,75% because the offer is below the inflation rate of 7,1%.
