“As Cosatu, we think
that they must convene an indaba in the North West province to talk
about all those problems and talk about what is that must happen in relation to
job creation not job losses.
The Congress of
South African Trade Union in the North West said it is
committed to fighting job losses in the mining sector.
This as alleged
retrenchments are on the cards for workers in the platinum sector due to
strikes that happened between 2012 and 2014.
Cosatu’s Solly
Phetoe said workers need to unite against these retrenchments and unite against
the labour brokers.
We want to warn all
the mining companies Lonmin, Anglo Platinum and Impala that they must never try
that, because they will be trying Cosatu and we will be ready for them.” Phetoe
added.
