Solidarity accuses Media24 of withholding management pay details

# Media24 is facing criticism from trade union Solidarity over its refusal to disclose senior management remuneration as part of an ongoing retrenchment process. Solidarity says the information is needed to determine whether savings at management level could help protect employees’ jobs. The union wants details on executive personnel costs, bonuses, incentives and vacant or eliminated management positions. It argues that every possible saving should be considered before forced retrenchments. Media24 maintains that the remuneration and personnel costs of editors and management are irrelevant to the consultation process.
