# Employment and Labour Minister Nomakhosazana Meth has stepped in to help avert the retrenchment of more than 22-thousand Pick n Pay workers. This follows a meeting between the company, trade unions and the government. The retail giant had issued a Section 189 notice last month, triggering consultations over possible job cuts. Ministry spokesperson Thobeka Magcai says all parties agreed to return to negotiations to look for alternatives to retrenchments:
