Sharks Board to go on strike
The duration of this strike action is unknown at this time.
The KZN Sharks Board has been in ongoing wage demand negotiations with its union, South African Liberated Public Sector Workers’ Union (SALIPSWU), since early December 2017. This matter has been heard at the CCMA on a number of occasions, unfortunately with no resolution.

The KZN Sharks Board has been served with a notice to strike by the union. This will take effect on Friday July 27. The duration of this strike action is unknown at this time and, in an effort to ensure zero environmental impact, all shark safety gear at protected beaches along the KZN coast has been temporarily removed.
Bathers are requested to adhere to lifeguards’ recommendations and instructions at the beach. The board will continue to negotiate with the union in an effort to resolve these matters speedily.
