Mineral Resources Minister Mr Mosebenzi Zwane has welcomed the end to the strike in the coal sector. This follows the parties reaching a two-year wage agreement earlier today.
"We are encouraged that the parties were able to find each other. The speedy resolution to the strike is in the interests of workers, the companies and the South African economy as a whole," Minister Zwane said.
The Minister continues to urge all parties currently in wage negotiations to continue to adhere to the principles as set out in the Framework Agreement for A Sustainable Mining Industry.
