Botash, BMWU salary impasse headed for mediation

This is after the two parties declared a deadlock after they failed to agree on salary adjustments for Botash employees. 

“A date in which we will appear for arbitration before the district labour office has been set. We will appear for mediation at the labour office on the 19th of August (tomorrow). We still maintain that the mine is financially stable to afford the salary increase without any special conditions,” BMWU’s national deputy general secretary, Maenge Maenge said.
