Support the UJ cleaners’ struggle for transformation, an end to victimisation and discrimination and for a living wage! For workers at universities, transformation must improve working conditions, raise wages, defend dignity and allow their full participation in governance of these institutions. Outsourcing and the privatisation of services such as cleaning at universities is against transformation because these measures lower labour standards and create a highly unjust system for workers at these institutions. This perpetuates the legacy of colonialism and apartheid. As a result of this struggle the UJ management has revealed that there is a huge discrepancy between what UJ pays Elite Cleaning Company and what workers earn. Having access to the contracts between UJ and Elite, Impact and PractiClean is an important step to take the struggle for justice and a living wage for UJ cleaners forward.
