Reuters reports that the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) said on Wednesday that it had agreed to a wage deal with Sibanye-Stillwater's gold mining operations after months of negotiations.
The diversified miner agreed to increase monthly pay for its lowest paid workers by R900, while so-called ‘miners, artisans and officials’ would get a 5.5% raise, the NUM advised in a statement. The NUM and the other recognized unions at the operations, namely the Association of Mineworkers and Construction Union (AMCU), Solidarity and UASA, have been jointly negotiating a new wage deal to replace a three-year agreement that lapsed in June. Sibanye, AMCU, Solidarity and UASA were not immediately available to comment. The one-year deal with the NUM is set to be signed in Johannesburg on 8 November.
