Yesterday, the United Association of South Africa Union sent out a 48-hour strike notice to the employer, demanding higher wages.
Comair and workers could not reach an agreement during annual wage negotiations, facilitated by the Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration (CCMA).
The union wants a 30 percent increase over a three-year period while the employer is offering 22 percent.
Comair’s CEO Erik Venter says,"We have a lot of contingency plans. We have a lot of other airport operators and drone companies that are available to assist.
