Title
Bosses on the attack! Workers fight back!
Description
THE bosses' system is in crisis. In the auto, tyre, metal and motor sectors, bosses say that they can't make enough profits. So what is their solution? They say we must help them solve their crisis - by sacrificing our jobs and wages. In every sector where NUMSA is organised the bosses are saying the same thing: "There can be no job security or moratorium on retrenchment workers must be retrenched. There can be no decent or living wage - workers must accept wage increases well below inflation (16%)." The bosses say there can be no compromise on these things if the industries are to survive. They are going ahead with their plans to restructure industries. Their aim is for fewer workers, who earn less money, to produce more for them.
