Namdock postpones mass disciplinary hearings for Walvis Bay workers
Breadcrumb
Namibia Drydock (Namdock) and Ship Repair has postponed the mass disciplinary hearings for its Walvis Bay workers, following a request from the Metal and Allied Namibian Worker's Union (MANWU).
The union, through its lawyer, Richard Metcalfe, says conducting mass disciplinary hearings of close to 500 workers in a day defies all notions of fair treatment of workers set out in the company's disciplinary code and procedure.
The employees downed tools on April 8 over alleged unfair working conditions.
