TAWU ready for fresh salary talks

TAWU president Allan Keitseng wrote to the director of DPSM, Festina Bakwena in May requesting information on human resource, salaries and the country's economic performance.

Keitseng said the request followed the rules of engagement his union agreed to with the DPSM and the Botswana Government Workers Union (BGWU) especially article 15, which calls for full information disclosure.  "The article demands that there be disclosure of information required for the purpose of collective bargaining which shall be governed by the provisions of Section 48 of the Trade Unions and Employers Organisation Act," Keitseng said.
