Judgment day awaits BOPEU, Gov�t vs BOFEPUSU :: Mmegi Online

Judgement has been reserved in a case in which Government and Botswana Public Employees Union (BOPEU) want the execution and implementation of the orders and judgement granted by Justice Tshepo Motswagole on April 6, 2017 be stayed pending the final determination of their appeal by the Court of Appeal (CoA).

Motswagole of the Gaborone High Court, nullified the unilateral decision by Government to award salary increment to non-unionised employees and those who are not admitted into the Public Service Bargaining Council (PSBC).

Motswagole ruled in favour of the Botswana Federation of Public Private Parastatals Sector Unions (BOFEPUSU) stating that Government acted unlawfully by unilaterally adjusting the salaries of the civil servants by three percent on March 30, 2016, and as such, is also restrained to award a four percent increase announced recently.
