BI’s Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.

To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, “workers compensation”. This will limit your search to that combination of words.

To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, “hurricane” & “loss”.

South Africa: Impala Platinum workers go on strike

June 05, 2013 Reprints

Metal producer Impala Platinum Holdings Ltd. said about 3,000 unauthorized workers have gone on strike after the company took action against one of its South African mine workers, Bloomberg reported.

This strike follows some other recent strikes and labor-union rivalries that threaten a turnaround in South Africa. In 2012, Impala fired 17,200 workers for taking part in a six-week work stoppage, which caused production activities to come to a halt.
