- Description
- The largest nursing organisation in the country, the Democratic Nursing Organisation of South Africa (DENOSA), has taken a historic decision to join COSATU at its recent congress held last week in Pretoria. The 200 delegates at the congress voted in favour of the move. The congress was held between under theme: ’’Nursing facing challenges. Development and HIV/Aids." COSATU campaigns secretary, Mcedisi Nontseie, said the union’s affiliation is a step forward in the consolidation of public sector unions within the federation. "This also consolidates white collar workers within the federation and further demystifies the long held reactionary notion that COSATU only represents workers in the lower ranks,” said Nontseie. South African Football Players Organisation (SAPPU) and Performing Arts Workers Equity (PAWE) joined the federation last year. DONOSA’s affiliation is set to boost the federation’s membership from its present of 1.8 million.
