EWN reports that after the resumption of bus services in Pretoria hit a snag, Tshwane Bus Services issued seven employees with letters notifying them of the intention to dismiss them.
Bus stops around the capital were deserted on Tuesday morning, despite the planned resumption of services. This after the crucial service was suspended for over a month when employees affiliated to the SA Municipal Workers' Union (Samwu) embarked on a strike. Allegedly, the seven employees prevented several buses from being serviced on Monday. According to the city’s Selby Bokaba, five of the seven alleged instigators were Samwu shop stewards. The seven employees were given 24 hours in which to make representations as to why they shouldn't be permanently dismissed. Bokaba said that a total of 123 employees had so far been axed for participating in the strike.
