In the light of intended march by the opportunistic so called Democratic Alliance to COSATU Head Offices in Braamfontein on 15 May 2012, the Communication Workers Union (CWU), which is an affiliate of the revolutionary Cosatu, we urge all our members and non members in the Information, Communication and Technology sector to come in their huge numbers tomorrow to receive useless memorandum from the racist and backward DA – lead by their political charlatan leader called Helen Zille.
CWU would like to inform the racist DA that, our members would descend at COSATU’s National Office in huge numbers to show support to COSATU that the youth wage subsidy is not in the interest of the overwhelming majority of the unemployed youth, but for the benefit of the greedy capitalist bosses who would use the subsidy to dislodge the permanently employed adult workers so as to ensure that their profits are maximised at all costs.
COSATU and its twenty (20) affiliates remains the only genuine leader of the working class and the poor in the workplace and such no amount of grandstanding by the rightwing formations will intimidate us into submission.
We are saying:
-
- No retreat, no surrender! Backwards never.
-
- Phansi nge- labour brokerage, phansi!
-
- Run Helen Zille, Run!

The Communication Workers Union (CWU) is once more adding its voice to the other voices of our federation COSATU and its affiliated unions that the Government of South Africa should ban, and not regulate the practice of labour brokerage. CWU, Cosatu and SACP have made it clear over and over again that labour brokerage constitutes modern day slavery and should not be allowed.

 The Communication Workers Union (CWU) welcomes the conversion of South African Post Office (Sapo) Labour broker workers to permanent workers.
As CWU, we view this initiative as an important milestone in the campaign for the total banning of labour brokers.
CWU is also in discussions with Telkom SA for conversion of Labour broker workers to permanent workers. This is a moral boost for us as we are going to embark on a strike as part of our federation Cosatu for the total banning of labour brokers and E – tolling system.
CWU would like to urge all its members to participate in full force on the 7th March 2012 in the mother of all strikes for the total banning of Labour brokers and E – tolling.
