The NUM was seeking an 11% increase in salaries, while the diamond conglomerate offered only 7%, at the Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration (CCMA). The CCMA issued a non-resolution certificate for the same.
According to national spokesperson Lesiba Seshoka, the union would decide on its stand at Wednesday’s shop steward council meeting.
The dispute amongst the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) and the de Beers management, over increase in salaries, still remains unsettled, with the NUM now considering a strike at De Beer’s South African mines.
