MyBroadband reports that the Communication Workers Union (CWU) has voted to suspend its Telkom strike, while the telecoms company has said it wants to see all employees back at work on Friday.
In a letter to staff, Telkom CEO Sipho Maseko said that they received feedback from the CWU following the company’s full and final offer related to the current strike. “The CWU voted last night to suspend the strike. When I spoke with the union’s President, he indicated a divided vote between those who were willing to agree and those who would not. The suspension of the strike is an important development. As per our offer, we want to see those people back at work, today,” the Telkom CEO wrote. Maseko added that, while he pleased that the CWU had chosen to suspend the strike, Telkom’s full and final offer still required the signing of the CPA (relating to “Performance Pays”).
