JOHANNESBURG- Saftu secretary general Zwelinzima Vavi has reiterated that workers who have chosen not to take part in the strike will not be intimated and any calls for violence will be condemned.
He added that violence in the streets will not be tolerated.
“A lot of times people who call their managers to make such claims when they don’t even exist, are trying to find an excuse so that they’re not disciplined or to be seen to be part of the action that was protesting in defence of their rights. So they would likely create non-existing stories, that they are being intimidated when they are participating in the strike.”
