BONU to confront DPSM over delayed recognition

BONU vice president for labour bargaining and negotiations Nsunungile Mooketsi Othusitse revealed this in an interview this week. The BONU applied to the DPSM to be recognised as a union last November. The application was supposed to take 30 days to process.

When the period elapsed the DPSM neither approved BONU's request nor explained the delay in processing the application, Othusitse said. He related that they wrote to the DPSM mid-December seeking an explanation, and they are yet to receive a response.
