Gov't, unions revive bargaining council

This development follows the recent signing of the PSBC Constitution by the government and several public sector trade unions. The signing reportedly marked a renewed partnership between the employer, represented by the DPSM, and the trade unions that represent public service workers. The unions include the Botswana Public Employees Union (BOPEU), Botswana Nurses Union (BONU), Botswana Teachers Union (BTU), Botswana Sectors of Educators Trade Union (BOSETU), National Amalgamated Local and Central Government and Parastatal Workers Union (NALCGPWU), Botswana Doctors Union (BDU), and the Botswana Land and Local Authorities and Health Workers Union (BLLAHWU).

According to the DPSM, the signing of the constitution is a significant milestone towards the official registration of the PSBC.
