Our employer is robbing us – security guards

A group of security guards working for White Leopard Security in Rustenburg are accusing the company of unfair labour practices and “illegal” deductions on their salaries. Two employees of the company – Maureen Molefe and Olebogeng Magic Motlogelwa – are alleging poor working conditions, “an uncaring management” and salary deductions that are not being accounted for. “Each month, R40 is deducted from every employee for funeral cover. However, we recently buried our colleague in Lethabong and the company failed to meet their obligations because they were supposed to pay the family of our colleague R10 000 to assist in the costs of the funeral,”

Motlogelwa, a spokesperson for the workers, said. “The company is also deducting R100 each month for our uniform. Even if the uniform is old, they still make the deductions. “I do not have a uniform but they still deduct from my salary. They also deduct R150 from my salary which they say is fees for transferring

money into my account,” Molefe claimed.Motlogelwa also suggested that the

company is being dishonest in their dealings with some of their clients:

“There are some sites that are not guarded but the company still receives money from their clients.”

“We also went to one of the local banks and discovered that there are no records that the company is

paying the provident funds they are supposed to be paying,” he added. However in an interview with Leseding

News, Obert Silaule from the Human Resources (HR) division

of the security company warned employees

against making serious

allegations without first verifying the facts on the ground. “Setting the record straight”, Silaule explained that the company has always had an “open door policy” towards all its employees. “The people you spoke to probably belong to a group of workers who would like to form a union. They are unhappy because we told them that for them to go ahead with their union, their group must amount to a certain number, according to the law. The group did not amount to this number so we

informed them that they could not form their union

yet. They became angry and I

think

this is why they are rushing to the media with these allegations,” Silaule explained, in an interview with Leseding News.Silaule refuted claims that the company had never assisted any of its employees through the R40 deducted for funeral cover. “There is no funeral that occurred that we did not attend to. We provide financial assistance and even provide transport to those of our employees who will be grieving,” he said. On allegations regarding the provident fund, Silaule said: “We have told the workers that we have a problem when it comes to the statements from the bank. This is an issue between the Private Security Industry Regulatory Authority (PSIRA) and our bank. “Even some of our employees in senior management have raised this issue and we have asked those involved in the provident fund to come and explain the situation to our employees. “Again, there is a proper route that the workers can follow internally because there could be consequences if these allegations against the company are found to be untrue. “We have an internal structure designed to deal with the grievances of employees. Workers are even free to approach the department of labor if they have exhausted the internal processes are

still unsatisfied,” Silaule added. Motlogelwa said the workers had already

reported a number of their grievances to the relevant authorities in government.

“We have taken up the issue with the Department of Labour and they are investigating. They are yet to get back

to us,” Motlogelwa said.

Scholar transport: How safe are our children?The recent death of three children in a train accident involving another vehicle has brought to the fore safety and security concerns in the transport sector, particularly with regard to vehicles – commonly referred to as “skof ” – that are used to transport children to and from schools.Of major concern to most parents and guardians are revelations that a number of the drivers ferrying their children pose a serious danger not only to the passengers they carry but also to themselves as most of them do not possess driver’s licenses. As if this is not enough, traffic authorities and the police have often discovered that a number of these drivers are either using vehicles that are not roadworthy or do not have the legal papers permitting them to be involved in such a transport business.A recent accident in which an 8-year-old boy and three other children lost their lives – after a vehicle they were travelling in was smashed and dragged along by a moving train – has left community members in Tlhabane and Zinniaville shell shocked.The police are investigating the incident, which occurred at the rail crossing between Rustenburg North (Noord) and Zinniaville. According to police, the driver of a Toyota Avanza that was transporting 12 school children attempted to overtake other motorists at the level crossing. The other vehicles had stopped at the crossing to allow an oncoming train to pass. “The vehicle got stuck on the railway level crossing and the oncoming train hit and dragged it, resulting in the immediate death of an eight-year-old boy on the spot,” Colonel Sabata Mokgwabone of SAPS said.Two more children were declared dead on arrival at the Job Shimankane Tabane Hospital.Mokgwabone said the police, who are investigating

a case of culpable homicide, are also keen to establish why the vehicle was illegally ferrying passengers.The driver – who faces an additional charge of reckless and negligent driving – might also be charged with overloading as well as contravening the National Road Traffic Act.In another incident, five people were injured in a crash involving a school bus and a bakkie on the R30 Klerksdorp-Ventersdorp road. Three learners who were in the bus that was transporting 30 learners to school were rushed to hospital with minor injuries.Twenty-seven of the learners who were in the bus were also transported to hospital for counselling after they were shocked by the ordeal.These and other events have left parents and concerned residents questioning the safety and security of the children who have come to rely on this form of transport to and from the various schools they are attending. It is against such a background of events that North West Premier, Thandi Modise, has called upon road traffic management authorities to clamp down on reckless driving, overloading and illegal learner transportation. “Although Transnet spend R4, 8 million on the Road Safety Level Crossing Project launched in partnership with the Department of Transport and the Provincial Road Traffic Management to bring down level crossing fatalities which have caused over 30 crashes in the past five years in Rustenburg alone, drivers who ignore rules of

the road and warnings not to beat trains at level crossings are still putting lives of passengers at risk,” Modise said.The Premier also called on parents to ensure that their children are transported in properly licensed scholar transport vehicles whose drivers do not overload. However, Mmoni Molete – the headmaster of Thabiso Middle School – told Leseding News that there is very little that parents and guardians can do in order to reign in on unscrupulous or unlicensed taxi drivers and operators. “It is difficult for the parents. They do not have the powers to demand the roadworthiness of any of the vehicle that transport these children to and from school,” Molete said. “It may actually become very dangerous for them

if they try to do this because the taxi drivers might not take it well,” she added. She suggested that schools must be given more monitoring powers. “It would be a good idea for schools to be given more powers. For example, we can ask the people transporting these children to come with a list of the children they are transporting as well as the valid papers allowing them to operate these vehicles.“We will then be in a better position to warn parents if there is a need to do so,” she added. She encouraged schools to either initiate or maintain scholar patrol programmes at points where children are dropped off and collected. “These patrols have ensured that the drivers are forced to obey the traffic rules,” Molete said.

Phokeng Trauma Centre – which was established in 2004 to assist victims of domestic violence and other forms of abuse – has been conducting various awareness campaigns and events within the community.The organization, which offers free psychological support and services to victims, held a domestic violence community dialogue in Monakato on 21 March as part of its efforts to reach out to as many people within Phokeng as possible. Although the event was held during Human Rights Day, it was well attended by community members.“The burning issue was the youth’s uncontrollable behavior and substance abuse. This is because it is one of the factors that contribute to domestic violence and sexual offences,” Kelebogile Timane of Phokeng Trauma Centre said.“After the deliberations, it was agreed that community members together with the local NGO’s and other stakeholders will work towards forming a forum that will address issues such as uncontrollable behavior and substance abuse. “We would like to thank the community members and stakeholders who took time from their holiday to attend the dialogue,” she added. The dialogue was preceded by a presentation by two other community awareness initiatives by Phokeng Trauma Centre. The organization made two presentations – at Matlhare Mokautu High and Tsope Middle School – followed by a door to door campaign at Slovo section in Monakato. The campaign also involved an interview with one of the local radio stations. “I would like to advise people to speak out against all forms of abuse because suffering in silence does not help,” Timane pointed out. Phokeng Trauma Centre assists victims of rape, domestic violence, human trafficking and other trauma related incidents such as robbery, hijacking, accidents and murder.

Sun City’s Environmental Department and the Moses Kotane Municipality’s Waste Management Department recently joined forces to tackle the mound of rubbish that had piled up at the ZipSlide area next to Sun City. Sun City – together with the newly appointed environmental team from the municipality – has also implemented a programme to counter illegal dumping by running a door-to-door environmental awareness campaign alongside an on-the-ground litter collection. The team participating in the clean up included 30 staff members from Sun City, while the municipality provided 21 team members, plus an additional 46 litter collectors to assist on the

day. The activity forms part of the Extended Public Works Programme which, in addition to cleaning up the environment, also aims to create jobs for the unemployed.Platinum Waste Resources (PWR) not only provided a team to assist with the cleanup and transported the waste to the landfill site, they were also prepared to schedule an additional nightshift to make up the time needed to assist with the clean up.The litter collection teams received assistance in the form of bottled water and snacks, courtesy of the Sun City finance department, as a small token of their appreciation. Additionally, dust masks and gloves for each worker were also provided by the Sun

City maintenance department. In all, over 100 people participated in the clean up of identified sites and not even soaring summer temperatures could deter the team who soldiered on. They succeeded in clearing the mountain of rubbish from all the sites in less than two hours. The litter had gathered over many months. During this time, it was exposed to elements such as fire and rain and had become cross-contaminated from other waste. Clearing it, therefore, was not a simple task. However, the determined team removed a total of 2630kg of waste, of which 840kg was recycled. The unrecyclable waste was eventually disposed of at the Sun City landfill site by PWR.

PLATINUM PEOPLEGetting to Know: Cleopatra Nkhuma

It the modern day era – where technological advances have had an effect on the lives and practices of many – it is becoming increasingly rare for young people to take a keen interest in the cultures and traditions that were practiced by the older generation. In most cases, young people would rather preoccupy themselves with the latest fashion trends, movies or technological gadgets such as cellphones, tablets, ipads…….the list goes on. This is probably why teachers, parents and other invited guests gave a standing ovation to 18-year-old Cleopatra Nkhuna after her eloquent rendition of a Xhosa poem during a recently held Silver Jubilee event. The event was held to celebrate H.F. Tlou School’s 25th anniversary as well as to look back at the progress the educational institution has made since it was established. Various performances, including a number of gospel songs from the school’s choir, kept the crowd entertained during the proceedings. But Nkhuna’s recital was unique – and made all the more special by her Xhosa traditional attire. “I started performing traditional poems while I was still at my previous school in Freedom Park,” Cleopatra, a student at H.F. Tlou School, said. “I was only 13 years old at that time but I enjoyed myself very much because this is something that is very close to me,” she added. She revealed that she got the Xhosa influence from her mother, who is part of the Amahlubi tribe living in the Moses Kotane area of the North West. “My mother comes from Khayakhulu and

she has a lot of poems that she has taught me. Performing before all these people is a huge milestone for me because huge

audiences have

made me more and more confident,” she said. Her poems mostly focus on parents and teachers. In her recital during the Silver Jubilee event, she gave an appreciation of the efforts being made by teachers and parents towards education. “I was talking about how thankful I am for

the opportunities that we are given by our teachers and parents,” she explained. Cleopatra hopes she will succeed in pursuing her poetry after school. “I am not involved in any drama activities here at school but I am very excited about my Xhosa poetry. I would like to challenge all the

young people out there to be proud of their roots. “I am hoping that after school, I will be able to continue with my poetry, maybe consider a career in the arts. “For now, I am just enjoying reciting poems to people,” she concluded.

Shanduka Black Umbrellas (SBU), in partnership with platinum producer Lonmin, are playing their part in empowering local businesses. Shanduka recently hosted a procurement workshop for more than 60 black-owned local entrepreneurs on 13 March at the Lonmin Conference Centre near Mooinooi.SBU and Lonmin launched a business incubator in Mooinooi near Marikana in September last year in order to broaden participation in Lonmin’s supply chain and boost support for small black-owned businesses in the area.This is achieved through the provision of subsidised, shared offices and assistance in

facilitating procurement, finance and networking opportunities for local entreperneurs. Lonmin, La Farge and BMG participated in this latest workshop and helped motivate and expose local suppliers within the Greater Lonmin Community to business opportunities while creating an opportunity to network. Speaking during the workshop, Precious Tshabalala, SBU regional manager for Mooinooi, encouraged suppliers who are part of the SBU incubator to stay committed to the programme as it would help grow their skills, provide mentoring while helping them to connect with the larger business community.

The newly launched Tlokwe Light Industrial Park is set to contribute significantly to the strengthening of Small Micro Enterprises (SMME’s) in the Tlokwe municipality.Launched recently by the North West MEC for Economic Development and Tourism, Motlalepula Rosho, the building of the Park is in line with the department’s mission of economic diversification, creation of sustainable enterprise and employment creation.The Park was built after SMME’s raised concern about shortage of factory space and exorbitant rental prices charged by private companies. “The North West Provincial government felt it fit to build the industrial park to stimulate economic growth, participation and sustainable development.“We want to increase the North West Development Agency’s footprint in all the districts of the North West Province.

“We are proud that Tlokwe industrial park was built by Gale Construction company, owned by a dynamic lady who successfully and timeously completed the project,” said Rosho.Rosho added: “Through our empowerment programme we encourage women, youth, and people with disabilities to venture into innovative production. “It is our vision that the industrial park be adopted as a good model that will support SMME’s to reduce unemployment especially to the previously disadvantaged groups.”Rosho further revealed that her Department intends to replicate this model in all the districts of the province and encourage small businesses to utilise it effectively. The Park has ten workshops measuring 100m² each and three of the workshops have already been leased out to the manufacturing SMMEs.Small businesses that are interested in renting the factories are requested to approach local NWDC offices and this will be on first come first serve basis.

PUSHING HARD: Competitors from last year’s event (PHOTO: SUPPLIED)

The 2014 CANSA Lost City Cycling Challenge, which will be held on 16 August in Sun City, is set to bring together a number of biking enthusiasts for a worthy cause. The Cancer Association of South Africa (CANSA) will once again be the proud beneficiaries of this showcase, which has over the years grown in leaps and bounds.This year’s event will mark the 17th time that the race will be taking place. Since 1998, the CANSA Lost City Cycling Challenge has grown to become an important awareness tool and fundraiser for CANSA’s wide-reaching service, which includes prevention and education programmes as well as patient care and support to children and their families affected by cancer.According to Centurion Cycling – who are the organizers of the event – competitors can compete in either the 103km, 70km or 15km races. All races will start at the Sun City parking area.“Entries for the 15 kilometre event and the kiddies’ race are accepted at the start. Entries for the road

race will be limited to 4 500,” reads part of the entry rules. Competitors will cycle on wide roads with broad shoulders as the race courses have been designed with safety as a priority. However, the demands of the longer and more challenging 115 kilometre route can be felt – almost form the start. Much of the route passes through a host of the local villages and goes past the Royal Bafokeng Stadium. But entrants must know that once one has around 50 kilometres of road in one’s rear-view mirror, the road becomes easy and more pleasant. Since its inception, the CANSA Lost City Cycling Challenge has raised over R2 million for cancer awareness initiatives. On the actual day of this year’s event, there will be many activities aimed at children’s entertainment – making it a real family affair. Entry to Sun City is free for all participants, family members and spectators, provided you are through the gates before 06h30.

Plans are underway to set up a football academy in one of the local colleges in Mogwase – a development that would be a huge boost to the development of the sport in that area. Orbit FET College’s Mankwe Campus will soon have a football academy whose aim is to harness talent within the educational facility while also promoting the sport as a career option and a means of staying healthy. Kabelo Sibiya – the coach of Orbit FET College FC – revealed to Leseding News that the academy is likely to be fully operational before the end of this year. “We are very excited about this development because this means that as a club, we will have

more options to pick our players from,” Sibiya said. “It is also an excellent opportunity for football development in the Mogwase area. The talent is definitely there. “All that is needed is for those who are interested in football to receive the correct instructions in terms of coaching,” he added. He also explained that the academy will be in line with some of the courses that will be offered at the college. “The college is busy with sports programmes such as Sports Science, Sports Administration and the academy will be in line with this development,” he said. Sibiya’s team – who are based in Rustenburg – go to the Mankwe

Campus twice a week for training.“We often use their gym for training twice a week. Once the academy is fully operational we will be able to also benefit from these facilities,” he pointed out.“Players from 19 years and under, who can add value to the academy, will be invited for trails once the facility is up and running. “This is a major development for football in this area,” he added.
