You choose how you want to introduce yourself. You could want to give a bit of a background about yourself. I will have a separate illustration on newsprint, showing what I have done since birth up to now! One could recite that if they like. Group introduction: I propose a game be played, that will have everybody participating. The game is a "picnic game". You say to them we are a happy group who have just decided to go out on a picnic. So each and everyone of us has something to share with us all at the picnic. This must start with the first letter of your name. You (as facilitator) start by saying "for this event I will bring Aloe juice, for keeping healthy skins, because my name is Alfred". The next cde then say the same thing starting from me, the next also saying the same thing, until the last one. Then to see if you can still remember what they said you say it all. Rules: Cdes are not allowed to write down anything here, you could be helped with names and items forgotten during the game. Take a minute discussing how they felt about the whole exercise? You can mention the objectives of the w/shop at this stage from your understanding of the brief. You may say something about the participatory approach used in designing and presentation of this w/shop (methods used in Turp) as we believe that cdes have gone through a lot of experiences in their worklife and know the subject.

- Description: This Congress resolves that: That the Central Committee decision in regard to membership of political parties be adopted by this congress. That Numsa as an organisation would encourage its members to support the ANC in the coming elections. Cosatu should remain independent of the political parties or government both now and in the post-apartheid State. The future of the Alliance will be decided by the Alliance partners themselves. Cosatu must intensify efforts to strengthen its structures and develop its leadership in order to ensure it has a strong support base. The workings of the Alliance need to be improved by strengthening the local and regional Alliance structures so that decisions can be taken involving members and lower structures and not only a top down process of decision making. The Alliance should establish a report back process and establish a mandating process. The reportback should start at a national level and go down to all levels. The mandating process should start from bottom structures to the national level. This process should be done within a specific time period. Numsa should conduct regular discussions Locally, Regionally and Nationally wherein positions pertaining to the political negotiations should be adopted. These positions should reflect the interests of our members and through Cosatu we should influence the positions of the Alliance.

The judge said they were guilty of murdering another bus driver, Shezi, in November 1986. How did all this come about? The crisis started in October 1986. The traffic manager at Durban South Putco depot wanted to discipline a driver who was in an accident. But the manager did not follow the disciplinary procedure so workers lodged a grievance against the manager. The manager did not come to the grievance hearing.

- Description: In reviewing the 1990 financial year for TGWU (1 Jan 1990 - 31 Dec 1990) it is clear that the union was in an unstable financial position. The income from subscriptions was forever fluctuating. In most cases expenditure for this period exceeded the income from subscriptions. Our bank balance was, from time to time, in an overdraft situation. The union couldn’t be self-sufficient—and as a result, relied on foreign funding. This report will deal with both the income and expenditure for the said financial period.

- Description: On 31 July the Town Clerk of Diepmeadow Council (Soweto) told 12 meter readers that a private company was taking over the meter reading section of the council. So meter readers were no longer employed by the council. At once 1,200 TGWU council workers went on strike and demanded the reinstatement of the 12 workers. The 12 workers were reinstated but the workers continued the strike demanding the dismissal of Noel Gaum, the Town Clerk. The council agreed to meet about Gaum so workers returned to work. But after the meeting Gaum was not dismissed. So workers struck for 2 more days. Workers, clerks, township managers and social workers were united in calling for Gaum's dismissal. Gaum worked before as town clerk in Lekoa and Tumahole Councils and was not liked. Diepmeadow workers outlined 37 grievances against Gaum. Some of these grievances are that Gaum is rascist, that he is rude to workers, that he never consults workers on anything, and that when the council was upgraded to a city council Gaum got a 20% salary increase but workers did not. In response to worker demands the Diepmeadow Council dismissed Gaum and gave workers the 20% increase they demanded.
