Due to work operational requirements, restructuring and other inevitable work-related necessities, some employees happened
103
to be relocated from one work station to the other, within the municipal jurisdiction.
No officially sanctioned reimbursement has occurred.
However, upon the transfer of some three officials (Mr. S.J.
Mugovhoro, Mr.M.J.Mokobi and Mr.M.W. Malema) from the Elandskraal satellite office to Marble Hall office; whereupon each was paid R6000.00 through unauthorized means by a senior official within the municipality, a dispute ensued.
Organized labour (Imatu and Samwu) demanded that same be applicable to other affected officials. The matter is still being dealt with by the two parties (Municipality Management and Organized labour).
