The Stronger the Union, The Safer the Mine
Produced by The National Union of Mine Workers (NUM)

Founded by Cyril Ramaphosa in 1982, The National Union of Mineworkers is a trade union in South Africa, affiliated with the Congress of South African Trade Unions.

NUM campaigned successfully in the 1980s for the end of the job reservation system, a system which ensured that the best-paid jobs were allocated to whites. The union was a founding affiliate of the Congress of South African Trade Unions in 1985. In 2001, it absorbed the Construction and Allied Workers' Union, while in 2021 it absorbed the Liberated Metalworkers' Union of South Africa. The merger was completed in 2021
