Anguished SPTC industrial class workers fume

This prompted Botswana Manual Workers Union (BMWU)to convene an urgent meeting last Thursday afternoon at Anne Adams Park with the council authorities to seek clarification. During the heated meeting, employees lashed out at the council's treasury department for poor service delivery and accused the council of having done this to deliberately hurt them.

The industrial class employees said they were shocked to discover that despite this, their permanent and pensionable colleagues were paid on time. According to the normal and usual arrangement industrial class employees get paid first. Fuming employees also lambasted treasury staff for laxity despite that they are paid overtime for processing payments on schedule.
