South African council workers are to strike over wages from Monday. A chemical sector union is also considering an improved pay offer to end a separate strike while transport workers at the National Rail Operator are to decide on Monday whether to take industrial action. SAMWU and IMATU which say they represent 150 000 council workers have decided to strike after rejecting an 11.5% increase.
