eNCA reports that outsourced workers at the Tshwane University of Technology (TUT) were due to commence striking on Wednesday.  

They are upset management has put out a tender for new security contractors after committing to end outsourcing and are also demanding that salaries increase to at least R5,000.  The latest dispute comes after management and representatives of outsourced workers signed an agreement to include workers in the insourcing process.  But workers are demanding the security tender be withdrawn so talks can begin.  The outsourced workers include security guards, cleaners and catering staff.
