Statement by Abigail Moyo, spokesperson of the trade union UASA:
UASA hosted the leadership of the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) for a constructive engagement aimed at strengthening relations between the two labour organisations.
The meeting held at UASA Head Office provided an opportunity for both unions to discuss areas of mutual interest within the mining industry, where UASA and NUM represent workers across the board.
As affiliates of IndustriALL Global Union, UASA and NUM share a commitment to advancing workers’ rights, promoting decent work and ensuring that workers’ voices are valued and considered in the industry.
The two labour organisations will continue to build a strong working relationship and explore opportunities for future partnership on issues affecting the mining sector and its workforce.
UASA welcomes such structural initiatives alongside fellow labour organisations and remains committed to collaborating on solutions in the best interests of its members and all workers collectively.
