Wage talks at Eskom come at a time when the power utility - which has implemented power cuts almost every day this year, is hamstrung by debt and under-performing power stations.
JOHANNESBURG - The National Union of Mineworkers wants Eskom to hike salaries by a hefty 15% across the board - as wage negotiations look set to start in the coming week.
Added to the salary hike, NUM has called for performance bonuses to be reinstated at 25% of the annual salary, after incentives for some workers were scaled down almost five years ago.
