numsaTimesLive reports that after receiving a revised proposal last week, the National Union of Metalworkers of SA (Numsa) called off the road passenger wage strike it had threatened for the Easter weekend.

The union said it was consulting members and that wage negotiations at the SA Road Passenger Bargaining Council would resume this week. It advised as follows: “We are giving members time to apply their minds and decide whether they will accept the wage proposal. As a result of this, we will not embark on a strike during the Easter long weekend. We will communicate the decision on the proposal after we have met as part of the National Bargaining Forum, which is the formal negotiating platform with employers and labour, possibly on Tuesday or Wednesday, depending on the availability of all parties.”
