19 November 2020 SATAWU (South African Transport and Allied Workers Union) members at PRASA (Passenger Rail Agency of South Africa) have been subjected to all forms of abuse and harassment in the last four weeks.

The South African Transport and Allied Workers Union (SATAWU) notes with disappointment the Medium-Term Budget Policy Statement (MTBPS) delivered by the Minister of Finance (Tito Mboweni) on 28 October 2020. The proposed market prescriptions aimed at mitigating the economic and social crisis will fail to bring lasting solutions to the working-class. Though the economy is…

We have learnt that PRASA is adopting an antagonistic approach coupled with blackmail, smearing campaign and the old tactic of divide and rule against SATAWU and its members. This is from a background where parties entered into intensive Salary Negotiations as from 03 – 06 August 2020 after consolidation with their counterparts UNTU. ย  During…

The union understands that violent taxi/transport-related episodes are beyond the control of management and staff. Conditions of this nature, however, demands that management and organised labour work tirelessly in…
