The Namibian government, in collaboration with the Namibia National Teachers Union (NANTU) and the Namibia Public Workers Union (NAPWU), has inked a comprehensive collective agreement on salary and conditions of employment. 

This pact promises to bring about economic relief for public workers who have been going through financial hardships.

One of the central pillars of this agreement is the adjustment of maximum qualifying home loan amounts under the Home Owners' Scheme for Staff Members. 

May Day has come and gone, but the world will continue to celebrate the economy's builders.

These come in different packages, some of which are constantly on the move, keeping the nation updated.

The work of the Namibian Broadcasting Corporation (nbc), in reaching out far and wide, has not gone unnoticed by the Namibia Public Workers Union (NAPWU).

This year, the National Union of Namibian Workers (NUNW) took its celebrations to the coastal town of Swakopmund.

A strike is looming at the Keetmanshoop Municipality after wage negotiations reached a deadlock. 

Regional Coordinator for the Namibia Public Workers Union (NAPWU) in ||Kharas Region, Kleophas Katuuo told nbc News that municipal workers voted in favor of industrial action. 

This follows after the Labor Arbitrator issued a certificate of an unresolved dispute on January 30.

He accused the Keetmanshoop Municipality's management of having snubbed conciliatory meetings aimed at ending the wage dispute, leaving workers with no choice but to strike.
