EWN reports that according to Metrobus, all its depots were operating at full capacity on Wednesday following last week's bus drivers’ strike.
Spokesperson Goodwill Shivuri said: "We are fully operating today, all of our depots are out at full capacity so, we are up early and our buses are on the road." Workers affiliated to the Democratic Municipal and Allied Workers Union of SA (Demawusa) embarked on a week-long strike demanding better pay and union office space. The union's spokesperson, Dion Makhura, advised that the union decided to return to work after it looked at the financial constraints of fighting Metrobus in court. Makhura also said Demawusa members would look for a way forward while raising funds to enable it to challenge the company in court. Meantime, Metrobus warned that employees who continued to stay away from work would face disciplinary action.
