The National Union of Metalworkers of South Africa (Numsa) on Friday said “any way forward” on the looming labour strike in the engineering sector would be determined by its members through upcoming meetings.

Following Numsa’s Central Committee meeting this week, the trade union had resolved to debate and consult on the status of the current negotiations, including the possibility of a strike, through regional shop steward councils and general meetings.

“The union will convene a national meeting to consider the outcomes of the general meetings, which will determine the way forward about the future of negotiations in the engineering sector.

“Once we have consulted our members we will inform the press of the way forward,” Numsa commented.

The Central Committee meeting was attended by the national office bearers, regional office bearers and officials from Numsa’s nine regions.
