Newcastle clothing workers on strike over wage dispute

The Southern African Clothing and Textile Workers’ Union (SACTWU) will continue the fight for a decent wage.

SACTWU is the biggest union in the clothing, textile and leather industry in South Africa, with 99 000 members at the end of June 2010. This allows Sactwu to represent members more effectively. We negotiate wages for the vast majority of workers in the clothing, textile and leather industry, and our agreements cover more than 100 000 workers.
