South Africa Coke Workers Stick To Their Guns On Raise Demand

http://www.laborradio.org/node/12657

Workers for South Africa’s Amalgamated Beverage Industries, which produces Coca-Cola in the country, have extended a strike and rejected an 8.3 percent wage increase offer. The workers are seeking an increase of 9.5 percent. The workers are employed in the company’s soft drink division, but have begun discussions with the beer division in hopes to get those workers to join them on the strike line. ABI is a unit of SABMiller.
