The Solidarity trade union has announced that its members who are employees of State-owned defence industrial group Denel will stage a protest march at the group’s head office in Irene, Centurion, south of Pretoria, on Wednesday at noon. The protest is to express their dissatisfaction over lack of payment of their salaries. “It has been six months now that Denel has not paid salaries properly or has not met its statutory obligations,” highlighted Solidarity defence and aviation sector coordinator Helgard Cronjé. “Loyal employees have now come under tremendous financial pressure while head office staff still receive their full pay. Meanwhile, blameless employees are losing their homes and cars while those who have been mainly responsible for the mess are not affected at all.”
