The Congress of South African Trade Unions is worried about the slow response from Sun International to our memorandum submitted on 31st October 2009.

The worst thing that Sun International contractors and labour brokers are doing is to continue to threaten to dismiss our members who participated in the protest action against racism by some racist employers inside Sun City.

We are therefore demanding that all workers who are dismissed for participating in our march on 31st October 2009 be reinstated today.

We demand that the Falcon Security company be removed from Sun City, and from all companies where we are organising, in particular Government departments and NWDC.

Our message was very clear to Sun International on 31st October 2009, that come 2nd November 2009 we want action in response to our memorandum. Today is 3rd November 2009 and nothing has come forward from Sun International except the dismissal of some of our members.

Dismissal of our workers will result to a total stoppage in the whole of Sun City very soon. Our members are not compromising. We will fight for ever to defend our members against any exploitation, including undermining our unions.

All workers who are threatened with dismissal must report to the federation as soon as possible.
