Outsourced MyCiti workers want to do away with labour broekers

SAfm — MyCiti employees who are contracted through labour brokers say conditions under labour brokers are bad for workers. They now want to be employed directly by the City of Cape Town. The workers have been on strike for four weeks now over this demand. Two MyCiti buses were set alight this week, one in Milnerton and another in Khayelitsha. Last month, another bus was stoned and petrol bombed, also in Khayelitsha. Security has since been beefed up on the buses. Sakina Kamwendo spoke to one of the striking workers Patrick Mabindisa.
