The Association of Mineworkers and Construction Union (Amcu) strike at Anglo American Platinum (Amplats) will continue on Tuesday, union leaders said.

The Association of Mineworkers and Construction Union (Amcu) strike at Anglo American Platinum (Amplats) will continue on Tuesday, union leaders said.
"We are leaving for Johannesburg, they called us for a meeting, but the strike continues," said Gaddafi Mdoda, a local union leader.
He said striking workers would meet again at the Thembelani shaft for a report on the meeting.
"We will give feedback tomorrow [Tuesday] on what happened in the meeting. We hope the employer will reconsider the decision to retrench workers," he said.
Amcu members downed tools on Friday in protest over the retrenchment of 3300 workers.
One of the workers, Amos Menzi, from the Eastern Cape, said it would be better if the strike was not prolonged because workers were losing money.
"I think we should be paid for the days we are on strike because the strike is protected. But now it is 'no work, no pay', meaning we are losing money on the days we are on strike."
The workers were expected to meet at the shaft on Tuesday morning.
