BDLive reports that the Communication Workers Union (CWU) on Wednesday distanced itself from suggestions it had signed a restructuring agreement that precipitated an ongoing strike at the Independent Communications Authority of SA (Icasa).  

Workers at Icasa have been on strike since 4 July.  Their grievances include salary increases and bonuses, and date back to talks in 2014 about changes to their working conditions, including the introduction of a performance management system.  Media reports have suggested that the workers left the CWU saying they had not been consulted properly.  The CWU said in a statement it had signed no agreement in 2014.
