Yesterday Cosatu briefed the media on the outcomes of their three day Central Executive Committee meeting where they spoke about a number of things. One of those was how they plan to deal with the issue of retrenchments. Now you may be aware that we have been doing a series of interviews around the issue of employment. Let’s engage Cosatu now to hear how they plan to fight retrenchments seeing that the country’s economy is not doing well. Also how do they interpret Finance Minister Tito Mboweni’s plan?

GUEST: Solly Phetoe – Cosatu’s Deputy Secretary- General
