"They will report back to the national executive committee on Wednesday (2 October)," Numsa spokesman Castro Ngobese said.

The last meeting between Retail Motor Industry employers and the union took place on Sunday (29 September) night as the strike by Numsa members entered its fourth week.

Numsa wanted a double digit wage increase and changes to conditions of employment such as the banning of labour brokers, establishment of a short time workers' fund, and a transport allowance.

"The employers [have] made a formal and written revised offer on wages, threshold, short-time, labour brokers, equal pay for equal work, and implementation date of the wage increase," Ngobese said.

He said that until a deal was agreed, the strike would continue.
