Ushaka Marine World staff to down tools on Wednesday
Updated | By Noxolo Miya
Ushaka Marine World staff members, who belong to the union SAMWU, will down tools over pay on
Wednesday.

The Durban theme park closed its doors on Monday after wage negotiations between workers and eThekwini Municipality deadlocked.
The municipal union is asking for a 15% pay hike, saying the city failed to implement salary adjustments recommended by an audit firm eight years ago.
The employer has proposed 7%, with the CCMA handling the dispute.
The union's Xolani Dube says a march will be held outside Ushaka Marine World from 8 am.

"The biggest issue that is in dispute is the payscale, where the employer commissioned a grading report in 2016, but that report to regrade all positions in uShaka was only implemented partially.
"That means only corporate employees were beneficiaries in the report, particularly the senior level. Between grades 17 and 10 were not included in the structure so they did not benefit."
