- Description
- The idea to restructure the union is not a new one. Political changes in our country compelled almost all the unions to consider the possibilities of restructuring the union and the industry in general. New approaches to Collective Bargaining Strategies came to the fore. The good example of these Bargaining strategies was the NUMSA THREE YEAR BARGAINING STRATEGY (1993). Later in the same year, CWIU also introduced its Bargaining Strategy in the form of five pillars. The common thing about Numsa and CWIU bargaining strategies is that they both failed to deliver and the process of setting up working groups are more complex than expected. The main cause of the tap problem in my view is that the existing union structures are a big deterent to the development and implementation of new bargaining strategies. Our Centralised Bargaining victory and the new LRA will demand major union restructuring if we want to utilise the openings created by these new developments. In this discussion paper, I will focus on how we should restructure our union. In this paper, I am suggesting that the union (CWIU) must be made up of four semi-autonomous departments.
