The National Union of Mineworkers has signed a
two-year agreement with Village Main Reef.
NUM General Secretary David Sipunzi said they hope
that the offer tabled by Village Main Reef is going to put more pressure on
bigger gold mining companies to try and match the monetary value of the basic
wage increase.
Sipunzi added that they offer an increase of R1000 for underground
workers entry level and R80 surface.
“Unfortunately those amounts do not attract
benefits but should we reach a better offer with other remaining participants
in the chamber that will spill over to this agreement with Village Main Reef,” Supunzi said.
