Once this is finalised, the NHE management will be informed and given notice before the commencement of the strike,\u201d he said in a media statement.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter counting the ballots, the voices of the NHE employees are loud and clear; enough is enough. We have informed the management structure of NHE, and at the same time invited management to engage us in the hope to collectively resolve the matter<\/p>\n<p>before the total stoppage of the operations of NHE is initiated.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, NHE spokesperson<\/p>\n<p>Tuafi Shafombabi confirmed the outcome and results of the balloting process.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe fact remains that the industrial action will negatively impact our operations and disrupt the normal scheduled services for the duration of this planned industrial action, of which the end-date is not known. In terms of Section 76 (1) of the Labour Act, 2007, NHE will invoke a no-work no-pay principle during the strike period. NHE will endeavour to work to resolve this matter with the urgency it rightfully deserves,\u201d read a statement from Shafombabi.<\/p>\n<p>At a media briefing last week, Haakuria stressed that the deadlock was reached after the company failed to honour an agreement for a once-off payment to staff of N$15 000. This arrangement, he said, was initially agreed to as part of the approved budget for 2021\/22.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/namibia\">Namibia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Namibia.
