BOFEPUSU Seeks Clarity On Scope Of PSBC

The federation wants the court to set aside the decision of government, which it argues was a breach as it is not a product of the bargaining council process and is also seeking a clarification of the court of the scope of the Public Service Bargaining Council (PSBC), which is mandated to negotiate salaries and conditions of service.

On Friday, attorney Mboki Chilisa who is representing BOFEPUSU said the unilateral decision was taken in bad faith, and is in breach of the obligation to bargain placed on the employer by the Public Service Act (PSA).
