Cosatu has denounced Mineral Resources Minister Gwede Mantashe’s statement that bringing criminal charges against mining bosses for fatalities at mines will cripple the industry.

“If our workers are not being killed, they are being injured permanently. We must amend mining and safety legislation to ensure that if any mining boss kills workers, they get arrested. Simple as that,” Mathunjwa said at the time.Cosatu has echoed AMCU’s views, saying Mantashe has downplayed the deaths of mine workers.

“If workers stop because the workplace is not safe, they may get charged and sometimes even fired,” said Sizwe Pamla, the federation’s spokesperson. Mine owners must be held personally liable for lives lost underground. This is the only way to end mine fatalities,” Pamla further said.
