The South African Transport and Allied Workers Union (SATAWU) is a trade union in South Africa. SATAWU went to a national congress in 2018 after being compelled by the 2017 court order to do so, this was based on the fact that the then leadership was not complying with the SATAWU Constitution and had total disregard of accountability on the finances, our subscriptions, which led to mismanagement of funds resulting into:
1) Late payments of staff members salaries and office rentals
2) None payment of COSATU affiliation fees and
3) None compliance to statutory obligations such as, submission of audited financial statements to the Department of Employment and Labour through the office of the Registrar and also filing the tax returns to SARS for exemption purposes since we are a non profit organization according to the legislations. 4) Unfairly dismissing staff members and the expelling of shopstewards who upheld the SATAWU CONSTITUTION and demanded accountability and transparency in the administration of the organization. Fast forward to 2022, the current National Office Bearers had failed to comply with the SATAWU CONSTITUTION by not calling the structural meetings like the Central Executive Committee, CEC ( This is the highest decision structure between National congresses), Finance Committee, FINCOM, which makes budgets and allocates funds for union activities on a quarterly basis per year. The NOBs basically micromanaged the organization until there was a complaint filed in June 2022 with the DoEL, the Registrar regarding these anomalies in the running of the organization and this compelled the NOBs to call the first CEC since their election in 2018 whilst the SATAWU CONSTITUTION expects them to call at least 3 of these meetings per year. It was after this Sep'22 CEC that the agenda of the NOBs became clear and apparent in that not only did they worsen the administration of the organization and continued to perpetuate the failures, as listed above, of the previous NOBs:
1)They have unilaterally increased the salaries of the Secretariat office, i. e, the General Secretary and his deputy, and also their allowances for rentals and those for the worker leaders in the NOBC. 2) They established investment arms on behalf of the organization and appointed themselves as directors without the approval of the CEC. 3) During the current NOBs tenure the membership dropped from 101 458 as per the 2018 National Congress report to 60 000 due their ineffective leadership. THE EXPULSIONS
As you may be aware that in December 2023, two months after their term of office expired instead of convening a National Congress as per Constitutional mandate, they convened a CEC after a second complaint was sent to the DoEL, the Registrar in September 2023 which forced them to act. In the 'so called' CEC they resolved the expel more than 22 shopstewards who demanded accountability and compliance of the SATAWU CONSTITUTION since structural meetings like the PECs were not being held and these would have been platform for us to ventilate our dissatisfactions on the status of the organization.
Оңтүстік Африка көлік және оған байланысты жұмысшылар одағы (SATAWU) – Оңтүстік Африкадағы кәсіподақ. 2017 жылғы сот шешімімен мәжбүр болғаннан кейін SATAWU 2018 жылы ұлттық құрылтай өткізді. Бұл, сол кездегі басшылықтың SATAWU Конституциясын бұзғаны және қаржы, біздің жарналарымыз бойынша есеп беруден жалтарғаны себеп болды. Нәтижесінде қаражатты тиімсіз басқарды, мынадай жағдайларға әкелді:

Бұл NOB-терді 2018 жылы сайланғаннан бері өткізілмеген CEC-тің алғашқы отырысын шақыруға мәжбүр етті, ал SATAWU Конституциясы олар жылына кемінде 3 рет мұндай жиналыс өткізуді талап етеді.

1)They have unilaterally increased the salaries of the Secretariat office, i. e, the General Secretary and his deputy, and also their allowances for rentals and those for the worker leaders in the NOBC. 2) They established investment arms on behalf of the organization and appointed themselves as directors without the approval of the CEC. 3) During the current NOBs tenure the membership dropped from 101 458 as per the 2018 National Congress report to 60 000 due their ineffective leadership. THE EXPULSIONS
As you may be aware that in December 2023, two months after their term of office expired instead of convening a National Congress as per Constitutional mandate, they convened a CEC after a second complaint was sent to the DoEL, the Registrar in September 2023 which forced them to act. In the 'so called' CEC they resolved the expel more than 22 shopstewards who demanded accountability and compliance of the SATAWU CONSTITUTION since structural meetings like the PECs were not being held and these would have been platform for us to ventilate our dissatisfactions on the status of the organization.
Сіздерге белгілі болса, 2023 жылдың желтоқсан айында, олардың өкілеттік мерзімі аяқталғаннан кейін екі ай өткен соң, Конституциялық талап бойынша Ұлттық құрылтай шақырудың орнына, 2023 жылдың қыркүйек айында Реестрге жіберілген екінші шағымнан кейін ОКК шақырды, бұл оларды әрекет етуге мәжбүрледі. «Аталған» ОКК-де 22 цех басшысын партиядан шығару туралы шешім қабылдады, олар жауапкершілік пен SATAWU Конституциясын сақтауды талап етті, өйткені PEC сияқты құрылымдық жиналыстар өткізілмеді, ал олар ұйымның жағдайына қанағаттанбаушылықтарын білдіруге мүмкіндік берген болар еді.
The South African Transport and Allied Workers Union (SATAWU) is a trade union in South Africa. SATAWU went to a national congress in 2018 after being compelled by the 2017 court order to do so, this was based on the fact that the then leadership was not complying with the SATAWU Constitution and had total disregard of accountability on the finances, our subscriptions, which led to mismanagement of funds resulting into:
1) Late payments of staff members salaries and office rentals
2) None payment of COSATU affiliation fees and
3) None compliance to statutory obligations such as, submission of audited financial statements to the Department of Employment and Labour through the office of the Registrar and also filing the tax returns to SARS for exemption purposes since we are a non profit organization according to the legislations. 4) Unfairly dismissing staff members and the expelling of shopstewards who upheld the SATAWU CONSTITUTION and demanded accountability and transparency in the administration of the organization. Fast forward to 2022, the current National Office Bearers had failed to comply with the SATAWU CONSTITUTION by not calling the structural meetings like the Central Executive Committee, CEC ( This is the highest decision structure between National congresses), Finance Committee, FINCOM, which makes budgets and allocates funds for union activities on a quarterly basis per year. The NOBs basically micromanaged the organization until there was a complaint filed in June 2022 with the DoEL, the Registrar regarding these anomalies in the running of the organization and this compelled the NOBs to call the first CEC since their election in 2018 whilst the SATAWU CONSTITUTION expects them to call at least 3 of these meetings per year. It was after this Sep'22 CEC that the agenda of the NOBs became clear and apparent in that not only did they worsen the administration of the organization and continued to perpetuate the failures, as listed above, of the previous NOBs:

Тарих
1990 жылдардың соңында Оңтүстік Африка теміржолдары мен порларының кәсіподағы (SARHWU) және Көлік және жалпы жұмысшылар кәсіподағы (TGWU) екеуі де Оңтүстік Африка кәсіподақтарының конгресіне қатысты және мүмкін болатын бірігу туралы ұзақ келіссөздер жүргізді. 1998 жылдың желтоқсан айында Транснет жұмысшыларының қара кәсіподағы және Транснет одақтас кәсіподағы SARHWU-ға бірікті, ол өзін «Оңтүстік Африка көлік және одақтас жұмысшылар кәсіподағы» деп атады. 2000 жылдың 18 мамырында TGWU осы кәсіподақпен бірігіп, жаңа ұйым құрды, ол да SATAWU деп аталды. 2012 жылы бұрынғы президент Эфраим Мфахлела мүшелердің шамамен жартысын жаңа Ұлттық көлік қозғалысына жетектеп кеткен кезде кәсіподақ бөлінді. 2015 жылы тағы бір бөлініс Демократиялық көлік логистикасы және одақтас жұмысшылар кәсіподағының құрылуына әкелді. SATAWU COSATU және Халықаралық көлік жұмысшылары федерациясының мүшесі болып табылады.
Қытай қару-жарақ кемесінен бас тарту
2008 жылдың мамыр айында Қытай Халық Республикасының Зимбабвеге бағытталған, көп мөлшерде қытайда жасалған қару-жарақ тасыған An Yue Jiang кемесі Дурбан портына тоқтады, бірақ барлық қызметкерлері SATAWU мүшелері болған портовый жұмысшылары кеменің жүгін түсіруден бас тартты. SATAWU және COSATU жүк түсіруден бас тартуды қолдады, сондай-ақ басқа оңтүстік Африка елдерінің кәсіподақ федерациялары да кеме Уолвис-Бей және Луанда сияқты басқа порттарға қайта тоқтағанда, оны түсіруден бас тартты.
