The Public Servants Association (PSA) has given the Department of Public Service and Administration until this Friday to reconsider its stance on the public sector wage negotiations.
On Monday the PSA served the employer with a seven day notice to strike.
Deputy General Secretary of the PSA, Tahir Maepa says: “We have our proper strategic strike plan that will make sure that we hit in the areas that will make them to understand that the long term impact of the strike will have far reaching implications.
“We’re not going to compromise the services that are given to the poor like other unions would do, call out on our health workers, we’re not even going to touch those areas, but we’re going to touch the economic areas that will deal with where the state requires some assistance,” says Maepa.
This comes after the Public sector unions have delayed the conclusion of wage negotiations with government as the PSA was not satisfied with the offer that was put on the table.
