Tuesday, May 19, 2015

According to South Africa’s Eskom, more than 4,000 of the 8,000 workers on strike at its Medupi power plant have returned to work. The workers launched their wildcat strike seven weeks ago.

The workers were striking over living conditions at the site and in demand of higher pay.

“We have 5,000 people on the ground who have been cleared who have appeared before the disciplinary committees,”KhuluPhasiwe, spokesperson for the firm, told Reuters.“We only have about 3,000 more to go,”Phasiwe added.
