Mister Sweet workers and their supporters are protesting outside the Labour Court in Joburg now. The employer has applied to interdict the strike. The verdict is expected to be delivered at 14h30 today. At Mister Sweet, some workers earn R6000 a month to pay 16 pallets of sweets a day. There is no standard basic wage. The employer negotiates wages with a minority union who accepts whatever they are offered. The employer has admitted that another 13% of this minority union's members left this year to join the Simunye Workers Forum - SWF, but the employer claims that these workers became unionless.
Activists are boycotting Mister Sweet and informing the public about Mister Sweet's exploitation of workers! There is no standard basic wage at Mister Sweet. Some workers have been employed there for 10 years and are still earning R6000 per month.
It's the second day of the Core Group workers strike in Boksburg, Gauteng! The workers have also given the employer the option of structuring this as an R2000 per month wage increase across the board, a guaranteed 13th cheque plus a 5% contribution to a provident fund, or an R2500 wage increase per month across the board.
