The Motor Industry is staring a potential deadlock in the face regarding their current wage talks with NUMSA. The current demand from NUMSA is at 10 %, being more than triple the current inflation rate, whilst MISA is at 8%. A strike would result in approximately 100 000 strikers downing tools, directly impacting manufacturers and chapter 3 component manufacturers, which is not good news in an industry that is already under pressure.
The existing wage agreements expire on the 31st of August 2025.
We will keep you posted on this matter…
