The Council replied that the request was not supported by the majority of trade union parties<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe believe that the trade unions in this Council should at all times defend the job security of their members (health workers). As trade unions we should use all resources at our disposal to fight unfair dismissals, retrenchments, redeployment and other mechanisms used by employers that could affect job security,\u201d says Success Mataitsane, General Secretary of NUPSAW.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNUPSAW is aware of the fact that some public health care facilities are facing serious structural defects that are non-conducive to a productive working environment and we will always be supportive of reviews that can better the conditions of our health workers. However, we cannot condone the Minister\u2019s unilateral decision that is tantamount to an unfair labour practice,\u201d Mataitsane concludes.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">For more information and media interviews:<\/span><br \/>\nSuccess Mataitsane, General Secretary, Cell 082 553 8465 \/ 012 342 1674<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Issued by :<\/span><br \/>\nThariza Steyn, Nupsaw Media and Communication Office,<br \/>\n012 342 1674 \/ 082 455 2215<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The trade union NUPSAW, who is opposing the restructuring of hospital management, now has to come to terms with the fact that Labour is selling out to \u201cwhat the masters are saying.\u201d In response to the Honourable Minister of Health Dr Aron Motsoaledi\u2019s announcement 0n 27 February, NUPSAW requested the<span class=\"more-link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/nupsaw.org.za\/index.php\/2012\/04\/13\/restructuring-of-hospital-ceos-trade-uions-are-selling-out\/\">Continue Reading<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1409,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[45,49,46,59],"tags":[],"class_list":["entry","author-leon_sanders","post-1789","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-government","category-health","category-labour","category-press-release"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nupsaw.org.za\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1789","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nupsaw.org.za\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nupsaw.org.za\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nupsaw.org.za\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nupsaw.org.za\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1789"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/nupsaw.org.za\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1789\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nupsaw.org.za\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1409"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nupsaw.org.za\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1789"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nupsaw.org.za\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1789"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nupsaw.org.za\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1789"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
