Air of protest

Share post:

WORKERS AT Grantley Adams International Airport (GAIA) are taking their anger at not receiving monies due to the pavement tomorrow.

Coming out of a meeting with the National Union of Public Workers (NUPW), which ran for just over an hour yesterday afternoon, some workers said a two-hour protest was planned for the car park between noon and 2 p.m.

Shop steward for ten years, Deborah Archer, said she and the others were ready to demonstrate because they wanted to be paid the 3.5 per cent owed from a 7.5 pay increase agreed to during negotiations in 2010. Workers have already received the first four per cent from that agreement.

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