LABOUR MINISTRY LOCKED IN MEETING WITH NWC MANAGEMENT AND UNIONS TO AVERT STRIKE ACTION

   

The Ministry of Labour and Social Security is presently locked in conciliation talks with the management of the National Water Commission and Trade Unions representing its workers.

A 72-hour strike notice was issued by five (5) Unions representing the workers in response to concerns with the ongoing compensation review.

The Ministry confirms that there is no strike action at the National Water Commission at present, and assures the public that it is taking all the necessary steps to avert such action.
