Eskom unions are awaiting improved wage offer: NUM
--:--
The National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) says it is awaiting the formal tabling of an improved wage offer from Eskom.
The electricity utility is said to be willing to increase its wage offer to 7% when it meets trade unions for renewed negotiations on Friday in a bid to entice wildcat strikers back to work and to reduce higher stages of load-shedding.
NUM national spokesperson Livhuwani Mammburu on Thursday rejected a report that it and the National Union of Metalworkers of SA (Numsa) had rejected this offer.
