Jubilant mineworkers sang and raised their fists as they emerged from underground, ending an eight-day strike at Lanxess mine.

Rustenburg - Jubilant mineworkers sang and raised their fists as they emerged from underground, ending an eight-day strike at Lanxess mine outside Rustenburg after the National Union of Metalworkers of South Africa reported back to them the outcomes of a meeting with mine management.

In terms of the agreement, workers who had been on an underground strike would not be charged but would be issued with a warning valid for six months, the case of the 56 dismissed workers would be referred to external pre-dismissal arbitration for review and Numsa was granted recognition in the mines.This means that Numsa will have organisational rights at the mine and can elect shop stewards in different units.

Numsa members staged an underground sit-in on 19 June, demanding that the mine recognise Numsa as the dominant union, reinstate over 50 workers dismissed for participating in a strike last year and suspend a mine captain accused of sexual harrasment.
