South African National Park Workers Threaten to Strike Over Pay
Nearly 5,000 unionized national park workers in South Africa are threatening to strike due to inadequate wages. If the strike does occur, it will halt day-to-day services and operations at 21 wildlife preservations. Unions chose to declare a dispute against the national parks due to many months of stalled wage negotiations. The Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration has been informed of the issue and will work with the appropriate parties to try to move negotiations forward.
