Unions to Meet After CCMA issues strike certificate Against Sibanye-Stillwater

SOUTH AFRICA
  • A coalition of four mining unions will meet soon to map a way forward after the Commission for Conciliation Mediation and Arbitration (CCMA) this week issued a certificate of non-resolution allowing workers to embark on a strike at gold and platinum miner Sibanye-Stillwater’s operations in support of their demands for above-inflation wage increases.
  • Unions: NUM, AMCU Solidarity & Uasa had approached the CCMA in November to apply for a strike certificate after wage talks between the parties stalled.
  • All unions have turned down wage increases of between R570 and R640 a month for the lowest-paid workers, while Sibanye Stillwater said this was its final offer
