Acting Minister of Public Service and Administration Thulas Nxesi strongly condemned the strike by public servants affiliated to the National Education Health and Allied Workers' Union and other public sector unions on Monday. | MarvinCharles_

Union members embarked on a mass strike and blocked entry to government buildings, despite a ruling by the Labour Court, which interdicted the action.

"The department remains vigilant of any illegal activities designed to deny officials and the public access to the premises," he said. "We have just received a court judgment that has dismissed Nehawu's appeal of the interdict that was handed out on Saturday. This further confirms our view that the actions of those striking today are illegal. The police will continue to do their work to stop violence and disruptions of normal activities of employees who are not on strike," he said.

The Department of Public Service and Administration proposes a salary increase of 4.7%, and the union is demanding 10-12%.
