Kenyan postal workers, members of the UNI Post & Logistics affiliate, the COWU, are about to go on strike about the refusal by the corporation to start Collective Contract negotiations after several attempts by the union to get negotiations underway. Other issues include refusal to pay overtime, changes in the staff pension scheme and the removal of the current head of Human Resources department. The strike notice was issued on 26th October 2010 and is due to start on 10th November 2010. The support from workers is encouraging in fact they have started a go slow to already. The minister for Labour has convened a conciliation meeting between between parties for the 9th November 2010 and the COWU is hoping for good results from that meeting. The COWU of Kenya welcomes solidarity support from UNI affiliates, this can be sent to Benson Okwaro, General Secretary at; info@cowukenya.org
