Cell C employees protest over unpaid bonuses

Cell C employees have taken to the streets to protest over unpaid bonuses outside the company’s head office in Woodmead on 26 February.

Employees who belong to the Information Communication Technology Union (ICTU) blocked the entrance to the head office. According to Tech Central, the protest relates to bonus payments which they said they did not receive last year for work-related performance in 2017.

“Cell C is engaging with the ICTU leadership and its members to work towards a positive outcome,” Cell C said in a statement.
