JOHANNESBURG Oct 17 (Reuters) – South Africa’s Village Main
Reef said workers at its Blyvooruitzicht gold mine
suspended an illegal strike and returned to work on Wednesday
after reaching an agreement with the company.
“Most of the Blyvoor employees have honoured the agreement,
with 772 employees out of a complement of 941 reporting for the
morning shift today,” the company said in a statement.
The company said workers who did not report for work had
until Thursday to appeal their dismissals.
