Nehawu said the strike would continue indefinitely until its demands are met.
The strike, which started on Thursday, follows Icasa’s decision to provide employees a 4.5% salary increase from June 2026, an offer the union has rejected as inadequate.
Nehawu and Icasa fail to reach an agreementThe strike action stems from a collapse of wage negotiations between the two parties, as Icasa would not give in to the union’s demands.
This action is consistent with the Remuneration Policy (clause 8.4.4), which authorises the Authority to determine the salary increase percentage when parties are unable to reach consensus.”
Business as usualThe regulator said it has put measures in place in response to the strike action to ensure that business continues.
