Standard & Breederivier Gazette<\/span> onderhandelings met die bestuur het reeds laat in September tot vroeg in Oktober verlede jaar begin. <\/p>\nDie werkers en bestuur kon tot nou nog nie \u2019n ooreenkoms bereik nie. <\/p>\n
Volgens Arnoldus het werknemers aanvanklik vir \u2019n 15%-salarisverhoging gevra. <\/p>\n
Hy s\u00ea omdat die maatskappy \u2019n 5%-salarisverhoging wou bied, het werkers toe besluit op \u2019n 8%-verhoging. <\/p>\n
Volgens hom is die maatskappy in di\u00e9 stadium bereid om \u2019n 6%- salarisverhoging aan werkers te gee.<\/p>\n
Hy s\u00ea n\u00e1 \u2019n vergadering met die bestuur op 6 Februarie kon steeds nie op die 8%-salarisverhoging ooreengekom word nie. <\/p>\n
Volgens Arnoldus is werkers egter nou bereid om \u2019n 7%-salarisverhoging te aanvaar, maar die maatskappy hou vol met 6%. <\/p>\n
Werkers kla ook oor hul kostoelae. <\/p>\n
Arnoldus s\u00ea Rainbow Chickens en sy Fawu-lede het op \u2019n R310-kostoelae ooreengekom \u2013 d\u00edt terwyl Fawu-lede by Epol tevrede moet wees met \u2019n maandelike kostoelae van R75.<\/p>\n
Nog \u2019n aangeleentheid waaroor die werkers en die bestuur nie \u2019n ooreenkoms kan bereik nie, is die kwessie rakende die Kersfees-geskenkbewys. <\/p>\n
Volgens Arnoldus was die betrokke geskenkbewys in vroe\u00ebr jare \u2019n sak met ses sakke hoender wat 2 kg elk weeg.<\/p>\n
Hy s\u00ea tans, pleks van die hoender, bied die maatskappy \u2019n R370-geskenkbewys aan werkers. <\/p>\n
Volgens hom dring werkers egter aan op \u2019n R500-geskenkbewys sodat hulle ten minste \u2019n sak hoender vir hulle kan koop. <\/p>\n
\u201cR500 is ook maar te min vir \u2019n sak hoender. Die maatskappy is nie eens bereid om dit vir ons te gee nie.\u201d<\/p>\n
Hy s\u00ea wat die maatskappy tans doen, is om werkers se geskenkbewys vir hulle saam met hul 13de tjek te gee. Volgens hom beteken dit dat die R370 wat werkers ontvang, belas word, dus ontvang hulle nie die volle R370 nie. <\/p>\n
Arnoldus s\u00ea \u2019n ooreenkoms met betrekking tot oortydwerk \u2013 spesifiek op openbare vakansiedae \u2013 is reeds met die bestuur bereik. <\/p>\n
Volgens hom wag werkers egter nog op die maatskappy om di\u00e9 ooreenkoms op skrif te stel sodat dit onderteken kan word. <\/p>\n
Hy s\u00ea die klousule vir oortydwerk moet gebaseer word op die Wet op Basiese Diensvoorwaardes \u2013 dat geen werker verplig word om op openbare vakansiedae te werk nie. <\/p>\n
Volgens Arnoldus is die werkers bereid om met die betoging voort te gaan totdat hulle kry wat hulle toekom. \u201cOns mense is net fed-up<\/span> vir die manier waarop met ons gewerk word.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sowat 24 werknemers van RCL Foods (Epol) in Worcester, wat geaffilieer is by die Food and Allied Workers\u2019 Union (Fawu), is sedert 5
