Johannesburg - Gold One International [JSE:GDO] advised on
Tuesday that it had obtained an interim interdict from the Labour Court
restraining workers from participating in an unprotected strike.
The court also interdicted the Professional Transport Allied
Workers Union (PTAWU) from encouraging or inciting any employees to participate
in the unprotected strike.
“Modder East management commenced communicating the details
of the interdict to all Modder East employees on 4 June 2012 and is continuing
to do so.
“Employees have been instructed to report for duty as normal‚ however‚ the majority of workers for both the 4 June 2012 night shift and the 5 June 2012 morning shift failed to report for duty‚” Gold One said.
It warned that workers who continued with the strike could face disciplinary
action‚ which might include dismissal.
“The policy of no work - no pay will continue to be enforced.
"Management has ensured that contingency plans are in place to manage the impact of the strike action and shareholders will continue to be informed of further developments‚” the mining company said.
