Public Services Workers’ Union Halts Strike for Negotiation Talks
The union instructed all members under the single spine salary structure to return to work on Monday, October 28, 2024
- Strike suspended to allow for negotiations with the NLC
- Members instructed to report to work on October 28, 2024
- Resumption of strike possible if negotiations fail to produce results
The Public Services Workers’ Union (PSWU) has paused its strike following an order from the National Labour Commission (NLC).
This suspension is intended to facilitate negotiations within the timeframe set by the NLC.
In a recent statement, the union instructed all members under the single spine salary structure to return to work on Monday, October 28, 2024.
However, they cautioned that if negotiations do not yield satisfactory results by the deadline, they will resume the strike until further notice.
The NLC issued the directive on Wednesday, October 23, 2024, after discussions between the Fair Wages and Salaries Commission (FWSC) and the PSWU.
The strike, which began on October 21, was initiated to address demands for two specific allowances for union members.
