The South African Municipal Workers Union Samwu in the Koena Ramotlou region marched to the City of Ekurhuleni on Thursday to hand over a detailed memorandum demanding urgent action on long-standing labour grievances.
Hundreds of workers gathered outside the citys offices, saying their patience has been tested to the extreme after years of unresolved issues raised in the local labour forum, bilateral meetings and written correspondence.
The union represents more than 10,000 workers across the municipality.
