Labour Court throws out Association of Mineworkers and Construction Union’s appeal against union verification process
Court throws out the union’s appeal against membership verification process, clearing another hurdle for company as it moves to end gold strikeA court ruling on Friday was the latest of a series of legal setbacks for the Association of Mineworkers and Construction Union to keep its protracted wage strike going at Sibanye-Stillwater’s gold mines.
The Labour Court ruling by judge Edwin Tlhotlhalemaje on Friday disallowed an Amcu appeal against the union membership verification process ruling. While Amcu can still obstruct the verification process, Sibanye could in the coming weeks complete the process and approach the court with the results to secure an end to the strike.
