Endeavour Silver Resolves Illegal Work Stoppage

Endeavour Silver Corp. (TSX:EDR) announced that the workers involved in the illegal work stoppage that was preventing the company from accessing facilities held under lease near its Mexico-based El Cubo mine have agreed to go back to work.

As quoted in the press release:

Company management and representatives from the Mexican Ministry of Labour met with the non-union workers blocking the Las Torres leased assets late yesterday and heard their complaints. Most of their issues related the recent abrupt actions of their previous employer, an employment outsourcing company used by the previous owner of El Cubo, Aurico Gold, which put their jobs and their accrued benefits at risk.

In order to make the month-end payroll and protect workers’ jobs, Endeavour quickly arranged for another services company to assume responsibility for the workers accrued benefits and provide employment for the workers at the Las Torres leased assets. Endeavour’s subsidiary, Compania Minera del Cubo, intends to fully uphold its legal rights with regard to the actions of that employment outsourcing company.
