Neasa metalworkers 'forced to strike'
Neasa refused to sign a wage agreement even after Numsa had signed one yesterday.
National Employers Association of South Africa believes the union has lost control of its members.
Employers are now afraid that even if a wage settlement is reached they won't be able to cope.
The metalworkers union says it will meet with members to plan how to strengthen its wage strike.
North West police said the suspects attacked the Rustenburg Engineering Centre.
Riah Phiyega’s office says Numsa must be held accountable for the violence during its wage strike.
Phiyega wants to meet the union to address the violence which is characterising its wage strike.
Twelve people were arrested after attacking a truck at a metals company on the East Rand.
Both Numsa and Neasa failed to reach an agreement on proposed cuts to entry level wages.
Metalworkers union Numsa has rejected the employer's latest offer of 10 percent.
Numsa's strike has been characterised by violence and intimidation of non-striking workers and factory owners.
Businesses were forced to close their doors after being targeted by striking workers.
Incidents of intimidation and vandalism have been reported in Benoni and Booysens.
Benoni security guards refuse to work after being held at gunpoint, allegedly by Numsa members.
