“This is an important step in building a strong and stable company” says Mr Anders Liss, MD of Scania Tanzania Ltd. "I strongly feel that a good relation with the workers union is of utmost importance. As the agreement is now put to bed, management and staff will now be clearly guided and life can go on” comments Mr Liss.

The Voluntary Agreement, among other things, lays out employment conditions, benefits, work place rules and regulations, which are more advantageous than what is prescribed in the country's Labour Laws.

The negotiations where held in good spirit and witnessed by Mrs Happiness Nshange, TUICO Regional Office Ilala.
