Thousands of workers have been protesting outside the Medupi power site at Lephalale in Limpopo.
The action is part of the nationwide strike in the construction sector where workers are demanding 12% salary increase across the board.
The site is, however, open as the strike doesn’t involve the metal workers.
NUM spokesperson Taylor Jiya says they’ll continue protesting until an agreement is reached.
“As you know Medupi has a lot of contractors within the project. We’re a majority I believe even in construction nationally because 50% of the contractors are at Medupi.”
“Picketing started yesterday at Medupi and we will continue up until Safsec reach an agreement with the unions that are representing a working class within the construction industry,” he added.
