for overtime protest

W O R K ERS A T Continental Chma in Rosalyn. Pretoria who refused to work longer hours for less pay were dismissed and told that the factory was being dosed down

On October 26. the entrre workforce of 650 stopped work after management announced that they would have to work 45 hours a week instead of 40. lor tbe same wages. This meant their hourly wage would drop from R2 to R1.78.Workers demanded an hourty wage of R2.

a Christmas bonus aid an undertaking fiorr management that they would not have to work overtime They were dismissed but reinstated after management agreed to negotiate with their union the S»»uth Afri­can Att«ed Vvorkrn l-nion (Saawu) and not

to demand overtime of workers without con­sulting their elected shop stewards
