BIUST ditches BOSETU for BOPEU

Friday, February 23, 2024 | 310 Views |

BIUST said it entered into the CLA in good faith

The Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST) says it has recognised Botswana Public Employees Union (BOPEU) for its implementation of the university statutes over Botswana Sectors of Educators Trade Union (BOSETU).
