The United National Transport Union (UNTU) has declared a deadlock in wage negotiations with SA Cargo Services. The union has accused the company of bad faith bargaining, secrecy and exploiting workers, rejecting what it calls an "inhumane" 3.5% wage increase against an 11.8% demand. UNTU is also raising serious concerns about working conditions, lack of financial transparency and what it describes as a broader pattern of multinational companies prioritising profits over workers' rights. We spoke to UNTU Media Liaison and Communications Officer, Atenkosi Plaatjie to unpack these developments.

The Portfolio Committee on Social Development has urged that ministerial oversight be maintained following the Public Service Commission's provisional findings on irregular appointments in Minister Sisisi Tolashe's office. The PSC found that Ms Lesedi Mabiletja was appointed as Private Secretary and acting Chief of Staff without meeting required qualifications and had misrepresented her credentials, with senior officials also found to have altered her CV. Disciplinary action has been recommended against several officials and Ms Mabiletja, who has since resigned. We spoke to Bridget Masango, Chairperson of the Portfolio Committee on Social Development.
