Johannesburg - Members of the Communication Workers Union (CWU) at Telkom (TKG) are planning to down tools on April 18 and 19 after rejecting Telkom's latest wage offer.
Talks between the two sides remain deadlocked after failing to make any headway at a meeting in Centurion near Pretoria on Tuesday.
CWU said it had indicated to Telkom at the meeting that its offer of April 6 was unacceptable.
"We did, however, make an endeavour which in our view would bring parties closer, without compromising o... |

Last week, the country's only fully operational licensed telecommunications utility announced that about half of the planned expenditure would be on a new generation network, saying the expenditure would take place over five years.

This was the main factor in the share's 7.7% fall from R160.65 to R148.30. Telkom, which started the day with a... |
