North West provincial Cosatu secretary Solly Phetoe said that all the Anglo American Platinum (Amplats) miners who were fired will be reinstated unconditionally and be paid R2 500 once off bonus.

Phetoe said the trade union had been discussing with Amplats and it had agreed to recall the workers.

Amplats dismissed 12 000 workers after they had failed to appear for disciplinary hearing.

They were striking since September 12, demanding a minimum of R16 000 per month for their salaries.
