A planned strike by the National Union of Metalworkers in the motor industry has been put on hold.
Numsa spokesperson, Castro Ngobese, says they've not yet issued an official strike notice of strike to employers.
He says when the employer bodies heard of the intention to strike, they expressed a "willingness to further negotiate".
Ngobese says Numsa will meet with the Fuel Retailers Association and Retail Motor Industry Organisation on Wednesday and Thursday to continue talks.
Meanwhile, strike action in the construction sector continued on Monday after unions rejected the latest wage offer from employers.
Lesiba Seshoka of the National Union of Mineworkers says there will be no end in sight for the strike action in construction until employers meet their demands.
On Friday the body representing employers, the SA Federation of Civil Engineering Contractors tabled a 10% wage increase for category one to four workers and an eight percent wage increase for categories five to nine.
