ANA reports that the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) said on Monday it was deeply concerned that another worker had died at a Sibanye-Stillwater operation. The fatality apparently occurred at the company’s Khuseleka operation in Rustenburg last Friday.
Peter Bailey, the union's health and safety chairperson, stated: "Since January this year, 16 mineworkers have died so far in the mining industry and five fatalities happened at Sibanye Stillwater. We calling for more serious intervention to take place at Sibanye Stillwater operations in South Africa. We will end up in a situation where workers are killed and it becomes normal."
