Commissioner Marleze and others were also allowed to respond to the allegations against them.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n After consideration of all the submissions by all the concerned parties, an outcome report on the complaint from NUPSAW, CCMA found that Marleze Blignaungt and Mohau Ntaopane guilty for breaching the Commissioner\u2019s code of conduct and the CCMA has recommended a termination of their contracts. While Natalie Willemse was not found guilty.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n NUPSAW will continue to fight exploitation, oppression and discrimination of workers wherever they are in they workplaces.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n For More Information<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n Solly Malema<\/p>\n National Organiser, NUPSAW<\/p>\n Cell: 082 323 2958\/ 079 075 1968<\/p>\n Tel: 012 342 1674<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Kagiso Makoe<\/p>\n Media Spokesperson<\/p>\n Cell: 083 712 1614<\/p>\n Tel: 012 342 1674<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Victory to NUPSAW following their march to the Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration (CCMA) earlier this year, regarding exploitation of the workers by Dischem Pharmacies, the abuse of power and corruption by the Commissioner Marleze Bligaunt and others.
