The Minerals Council South Africa and labour unions, the Association of Mineworkers and Construction Union (AMCU), the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM), Solidarity and UASA have reaffirmed their support for South Africa’s national vaccination programme and have urged all industry employees to choose to get vaccinated as soon as they have the opportunity to do so. The industry supports the national #IChooseVacciNation campaign, noting that vaccination is voluntary.
The mining industry’s vaccination programme is being undertaken under the National Department of Health’s (NDoH) Occupational Health Site programme.
