Petrol attendants’ wagesNumsa has successfully negotiated an agreement from employers that they will raise petrol attendants’ wage rates to a minimum of more than R2000 per month. But they say they will only do this once the department of minerals and energy and the minister of finance agree to a hike in the petrol price of at least 2c a litre on top of the other increases that are happening every month.

Recruit your fellow worker!We are appealing to all motor workers. Please help us to recruit non-members in your sector. Latest figures show that more than 66% of motor workers do not belong to one of the trade unions in the Motor Bargaining Council – Numsa or Misa-Samu. If we don’t organise more members, the Minister of Labour may refuse to extend the agreement to cover all motor workers. And if that happens, those employers that currently fall under the Bargaining Council may want to get out of the Bargaining Council. And then all our hard won rights will be gone!So please encourage your fellow comrades to join Numsa!
Moto Health CareWorkers are reporting that there are some problems with the new medical aid. If you have problems with:
unpaid medical bills
service providers that refuse to recognise Moto Health Care
or any other problem please give all the details to your nearest Numsa office so that a Numsa organiser can send these to Moto Health with copies to the Numsa regional office so that these issues can be followed up.
WHAT WE WANT FROM MOTOR EMPLOYERS!1. Wages
CPI-X + improvement factor of 15%
increases on actual rates of pay, not minimums
minimum wage R2500

Kortliks:
petroljoggies se lone – Motorwerkgewers het in beginsel met Numsa ooreengekom om petroljoggies se lone te verhoog na meer as R2000 per maand. MAAR hulle síª dat hulle dit slegs kan doen sodra die regering instem om die petrolprys met “˜n paar ekstra sent per liter te verhoog bo en behalwe die normale maandelikse stygings in die petrolprys. Hou Numsa News dop vir besonderhede, of vind by jou vloerbeampte uit.
nuwe lede – Ons het jou hulp nodig om motorwerkers by ons te laat aansluit, anders mag die Minister van Arbeid weier om die ooreenkoms ook op ander werkers van toepassing te maak. En as hy dít doen, dan kan dit die einde van jou swaargewonne regte beteken. Skryf hulle vandag in.
Moto Health Care/Gesondheidsorg – As jy probleme het met die nuwe mediese fonds, moet jy asseblief jou organiseerder van al die besonderhede omtrent die probleem inlig, sodat ons dit vir jou kan verbeter.
