MEMBER OF FEDUSA

fedusasmlSAPTU is affiliated to FEDUSA (Federation of Unions of South Africa)

FEDUSA is the second largest trade union federation in South Africa.

The main advantage of affiliation to FEDUSA is that SAPTU can make use of the collective knowledge of FEDUSA, which contributes to greater participation and strength. Furthermore, SAPTU has the opportunity to influence legislation through FEDUSA and is represented on various national bodies including NEDLAC. This enables SAPTU to keep abreast of all new legislation.
