While the unions demand a 7% increase, SARS offered to channel its savings from 2021 towards salaries. Unions rejected this, saying it would only add up to a 1.3% increase, while SARS maintains that it could not afford the 7% increase without further funding. Considering the scenario above, write a research proposal focusing on the dynamics among the role players in salaries negotiation. Your research proposal must be structured as follows:

1.1 Propose a research title and write the background of the study as well as the research problem. (25)

1.2 Formulate FIVE (5) relevant research objectives and FIVE (5) research questions. (20)

1.3 Write the literature review section by citing a minimum of TEN (10) recent sources. (20)

1.4 Describe the research methodology and design and justify why it is appropriate to the study. (20)

1.5 Provide the overall significance of the study. (10)

1.6 References may include textbooks, journal articles and internet sources that are relevant to your field of study. (5)
