12 June - Labour
In today’s show, we were joined on the line by Jaco Kleynhans – From Solidarity. Solidarity has called on government to come up with a comprehensive plan to curb increasing fuel prices. A report published by the trade union offers a number of ways in which fuel taxes, among other things, can be kept under control. Jaco explained more on the recommendations that might relieve the burden imposed on struggling consumers by the rising cost of fuel.

We also heard from Mark Mitchell – From UCT’s Graduate School of Business. The UCT Graduate School of Business will launch a programme that will provide South African school leaders with valuable business acumen and enhance their leadership capacity. The course, which runs over two modules, is for educationalists who are first time principals, vice-principals, heads of departments, or teachers with four or more years experience who are eager to enhance their core management skills. Mark, the course director explained more on this new programme. For more information contact Dudu Mahlangu on (021) 406 1268 or email mahlangu@gsb.uct.ac.za.
And last but not least we spoke to Stuart Marshall – from the National Education Health & Allied Workers Union or Nehawu. The union has rejected the 10.5 percent wage increase proposed by the Public Service and Administration Minister Geraldine Fraser-Moleketi. The minister announced that public servants will get a wage increase of 10.5 percent with effect from July 1st but Nehawu says they want genuine negotiations and expect the wage offer to be based on an informed CPIX forecast. Stuart explained more. If you want more information about NEHAWU contact on (021) 424 4580 or visit www.nehawu.org.za
