OscailtStatement by the Anti-Government-in-Exile of Wits UniversityBeginning on Sunday 28 August, Wits students have been littering parts of campus in solidarity with the cleaners’ strike. Cleaners throughout South Africa are demanding a living wage of R4 200 per month: this compares with less than R2 000 paid to cleaners at Wits, who are employed by outsourcing companies such as Supercare. The strike has been undermined, at Wits and elsewhere, by the presence of scab labour; Wits management and the outsourcing companies are striving for “business as usual”. <b>This undermines the entire purpose of the strike</b>, which is to compel exploiter-managers to meet workers’ demands by withdrawing their labour, by <b>preventing the job from getting done</b> – by making sure the campus is not clean. 2024-03-28T21:06:16+08:00Anarkismoanarkismoeditors@lists.riseup.nethttp://www.anarkismo.net/atomfullposts?story_id=20500http://www.anarkismo.net/graphics/feedlogo.gif
