^{page 223 note 2} According to M. A. Bienefeld: ‘When faced with the renewed wave of strikes in 1962 the Government moved on two fronts. It passedyy legislation which virtually outlawed the strike as a bargaining weapon, and with the unions disarmed in this way, it proceeded to usurp their place by providing workers with sizeable benefits through legislation. Substantial increases in minimum wages, affecting large numbers, came into effect on January first, 1963, and within little more than a year legislation had been passed providing employees with job security, severance pay, a National Provident Fund and other benefits.’ A General Theory of Trade Union Development: some lessons from Tanzania, University of Dar es Salaam, Economic Research Bureau Paper, 07 1972, p. 13.Google Scholar

Bienefeld, op. cit. p. 15, believes that the move to create N.U.T.A. ‘was possible because the Government had through its legislative programme established itself as a credible representative of the workmen, because the deposed leadership did have relatively few roots in the movement it led, and finally because that movement itself was weak and lacked cohesion.’ In February 1978, N.U.T.A. adopted a new constitution and changed its name to Jumuiya Ya Wafanyakazi Wa Tanzania, abbreviated J.U.W.A.T.A., the Tanzania Workers' Organisation (‘The Rules of the Tanzania Workers' Organisation with Background Material and an Introduction’, Jackson, Dudley, The University of Aston Management Centre Working Paper Series, No. 127, 02 1979,Google Scholar provides a translation of the new rules and constitution).
