HeraldLive reports that the strike by Nelson Mandela Bay municipal refuse workers ended on Tuesday after union members and the municipality agreed to certain terms put on the table.  However, some issues must still be resolved.  

The SA Municipal Workers’ Union (Samwu) said the workers would go back to work on Wednesday.  To cushion the blow of taking away the extra R1,300 the more than 100 staff had been receiving illegally every month for the past three years for working through their lunch hours and tea breaks, a compromise was reached with the city agreeing to a once-off year’s payout.
