JOHANNESBURG Oct 24 (Reuters) – Gold Fields, the
world’s fourth-largest bullion producer, said on Wednesday that
7,000 of its striking South African employees had appealed their
dismissal notices.
The company ordered the dismissal of 8,100 workers on
Tuesday after they failed to return to work at its KDC East
operations in South Africa. The appeals provide an opportunity
for the dismissed workers to be reinstated.
