Mantashe shrugs off Amcu demand to arrest bosses after fatalities busrep

JOHANNESBURG - Mineral Resources Minister Gwede Mantashe has shrugged off calls for the government to arrest mine bosses for fatalities as the Department of Mineral Resources reported there were fewer employees who had died across the country’s mines last year. The DMR on Friday reported that fatalities had fallen 10percent in 2018 to 81 from 90 in 2017 and 73 in 2016, when the industry recorded the lowest fatalities.

“Criminal charges are necessary, but it cannot be a formula for dealing with mine accidents. My own view is that where a manager is negligent, that manager must be charged. It cannot be that every time there is a death there is an arrest. There will be nobody left to run the industry,” said Mantashe.

“Every mine that kills a worker - their chief executive must be put behind bars. They must be prosecuted. They take short cuts on the Mine Health and Safety Act. Sibanye-Stillwater has killed 21 breadwinners, and the government has not raised a finger,” said Mathunjwa.
