Business Report writes that Eskom has agreed to meet with unions on Friday, 3 August to discuss the issue of bonus payments for employees.
Workers at some of the power utility's stations went on wildcat strikes this week to express their unhappiness about the ongoing dispute between Eskom and unions over the recent decision to do away with bonus payments this year. “The way we understand bonuses is that you pay a bonus once we’ve done well in terms of finances and given Eskom’s financial position right now, it will be reckless for management if they were to offer anything.
