Durban: The South African Municipal Workers Unions (Samwu) has threatened to embark on a nationwide strike should the municipalities fail to adhere to their âsteepâ salary demands.
The wage increment negotiations for 2021 between municipal unions and the South African Local Government Association (Salga) which represents all municipalities were expected to be concluded this week.
However, they reached a deadlock on Friday with no collective agreement on the horizons.
Salga had tabled a proposal of a 2.8% salary increment across the board while Samwu demanded 9% or R4000, while the Independent Municipal and Allied Trade Union (Imatu) demanded 5.5%.
