Postal employees to report ‘sick’ from midnight today
Posted by Editor on July 21, 2019 - 8:18 am
Postal unions will launch a ‘sick note campaign’ from midnight today to draw the attention of the government to several unresolved issues.
The 24-hour protest will continue until Monday.
The unions staged a two-day strike last week due to what they termed “issues that had arisen due to Public Administration Circular No. 06/2006”.
The unions asserted that postal employees had been inconvenienced due to the recruitment procedure introduced by the circular.
