Pretoria - More strike action by Tshwane municipal workers might be on the cards, as the regional SA Municipal Workers (Samwu) say they are disappointment that Mayor Randall Williams cancelled a meeting with the union at the last minute.
The meeting was scheduled to take place last Thursday to look into some of the grievances contained in a memorandum handed over to Finance MMC Mare-Lise Fourie during the workers’ march on June 1.
Regional Samwu chairperson Nkhetheni Muthavhi said the union would convene a meeting with its shop stewards today to decide on the way forward.
About 1 000 learners have tested positive for the coronavirus in the province in the past week, with the Pretoria CBD, Roodepoort and Randburg among the many hot spots.
