South Africa’s National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) has withdrawn its strike threat against the operations of Gold Fields Ltd. The NUM and Gold Fields said that they have agreed a process during which issues related to the compulsory Functional Work Capacity Testing System will be negotiated.

Gold Fields’ executive vice-president, Vishnu Pillay, who is also head of the company’s South African operations, commented: “We welcome the NUM’s commitment to ongoing negotiations, and will engage with them to find a suitable work capacity testing system that meets the requirements of our company, the trade unions and is compliant with mine health and safety legislation.”
