*CWU DELIGHTED BY CONFIRMATION OF NO RETRENCHMENTS AT THE SABC* * *
*19 – 08 – 2011 * The Communication Workers Union (CWU) met with top executive management of the SABC today 19 August 2011 to deal with utterances made by SABC Board Chairperson - Dr Ben Ngubane to the national parliament to the effect that they need more money to pay retrenchment and voluntary packages. As CWU, we are delighted by the reassurance of the SABC top executive management to rectify the mistake made by the chairperson of the board. Because as CWU, the utterances such as “Early Retirement”, “Voluntary Severance Packages” and “Reducing Headcount” to us in the trade union movement language simply means Retrenchment. And as CWU, we will never allow any action by any employer including the SABC which is intended to destroy jobs in an economy that is already experiencing high levels of unemployment and poverty. We are for the creation of decent work in line with priorities of the ANC led government. *Contact:* * * *Matankana Mothapo, National Spokesperson - 0827590900* -- You are subscribed.
