[miningmx.com] – SOUTH Africa’s labour minister has called for wage negotiations across the country’s economic sectors to be expeditious and conducted in good faith for the good of the economy.
“Wage negotiations should not necessarily result in a strikes,” said Mildred Oliphant in a report by Sapa which cited a statement on Thursday.
“Even when a strike is called, at the end of the day the parties have to find a way resolving the outstanding matters around the table.”
South Africa was currently experiencing strikes in the gold mining, vehicle, airline and construction sectors, said Sapa.
