The National Education, Health and Allied Workers’ Union says it will not consider the 2023-24 wage agreement with the government which other unions have signed, until a deal is reached on 2022-23 wages. Other unions in the public service concluded a 7.5% wage increase with the government for 2023-2024 following negotiations which began on 17 February. These include the South African Democratic Teachers’ Union and unions affiliated with the Federation of Unions of South Africa .But NEHAWU says it is still negotiating last year’s settlement.
After strike action rocked the country for over a week, Nehawu and other unions reached an agreement on 14 March with the Department of Public Services and Administration to end the strike and return to the negotiating table over the 2022-23 wages. The agreement said a “no work, no pay” principle would be applied but no employee would be disciplined for taking part in the strike.
