A hearing before the problem-hit Employment Rights Tribunal (ERT) still remains the best course of action open to dismissed National Conservation Commission (NCC) workers seeking justice.

General secretary of the Barbados Workers’ Union (BWU), Toni Moore, said yesterday this was the position of the majority of axed NCC workers attending a meeting at the BWU’s headquarters in Harmony Hall, St Michael, and would be the line taken by the union.
