Columbus Stainless to keep up with schedule despite strike
Stainless steelmaker of
Spain Acerinox declared that
production schedule at its 64% owned subsidiary Columbus
Stainless won't be interrupted even if The National Union of Metalworkers of South
Africa (NUMSA) workers realize the strike action. As Columbus Steel in South
Africa has some plans at hand for this case, company assured that
production and deliveries to customers will keep its track.
Last week, NUMSA stated that member workers which account for 24% of total workforce of Columbus
Stainless, voted to strike this week due to unwelcome wage rises ranging between 4.5-16%, which is apart from 15% increase demanded by the union.
