As COSATU unions, we need to work together and ensure unity within the federation. The current situation in Eskom is allowing our class enemies to laugh and take the opportunity with 2 hands. We need to put focus on the interest of energy workers and take our differences to CEC for deliberations. The mention of the Eskom Power workers union is what we need to challenge. One union, one industry principle need to be applied. Members first and unity.

As a union we reject these as pure falsehood and a desperation by our sister union to cause havoc within the ranks of our union and the federation at large. This flies against the principles of COSATU as a federation enshrined first in its preamble of unifying industrial trade unions, and that of worker solidarity. It further undermines the federation’s objective of encouraging cooperation amongst affiliates. The NUM puts it on record that there is no agreement between itself and Eskom. The Eskom wage dispute has been referred to the CCMA by the employer which the NUM takes exception of. The NUM has on a number of occasions shown its displeasure with Eskom’s approach to industrial relations as well as its proposal for a five year deal. We totally reject Eskom’s posture together with NUMSA’s unfounded allegations and lies. *_For further information, please contact_**:**** **** **Lesiba Seshoka (Spokesman)**** **National Union of Mineworkers**** **7 Rissik Street**** **Cnr Frederick**** **Johannesburg**** **** **Tel: 011 377 2047**** **Cell: 082 803 6719**** **Web: www.num.org.za**** **** **Twitter: @Num_Media* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- _*Communist University*_*:* _CU Downloads_: _*sites.google.com/site/cu2012courses/* <https://sites.google.com/site/cu2012courses/>_ _E-mail forums_: _*CU* <https://groups.google.com/group/communist-university>_; _*YCLSA* <https://groups.google.com/group/yclsa-eom-forum>_; _*CU-Africa* <https://groups.google.com/group/CUAfrica>_; _*SADTU* <https://groups.google.com/group/sadtu-political-education-forum>_ _Blog_s: _*CU* <http://domza.blogspot.com/>_; _*YCLSA* <http://wftu-yclsa-cu-jhb.blogspot.com/>_; _*CU-Africa* <http://cuafrica.blogspot.com/>_; _*SADTU* <http://sadtu-pol-ed.blogspot.com/>_ _Moderator_: _*[email protected]* <mailto:[email protected]> _ _ _ -- -- You are subscribed.
