Numsa rejects Eskom wage offer

Johannesburg - The National Union of Metalworkers of South Africa (Numsa) said on Monday it has refused to sign a wage deal with power utility Eskom.
 
Numsa said that a strike by its members was not imminent “but if it comes to the push, we will not hesitate to mobilise our members for an industrial action”.

It said Eskom was offering a 7% wage increase while it was demanding 13% across the board.

Eskom, which supplies virtually all of SA's power, has also been locked in wage talks with the National Union of Mineworkers.
