THE RETRENCHED WORKERS of the National Conservation Commission (NCC) are not a forgotten group.

While nothing has been said publicly from their representative the National Union of Public Workers (NUPW) in recent times, president Akanni McDowall gave the assurance that the case of the NCC workers was still very much on the union’s agenda.

McDowall was responding to concerns from workers who felt their issue, which is before the Employment Rights Tribunal, had been put on the back burner.

A distressed St Michael woman, who said she was speaking on behalf of a number of her former colleagues, called the WEEKEND NATION yesterday with a number of questions relating to their dismissal from the NCC more than a year ago.

Please read the full story in today’s Weekend Nation, or in the eNATION edition.
