A CANADIAN CONTRACTED WORKER at the Barbados Light & Power (BL&P) Company Limited is back on the job at the utility company’s Spring Garden generating plant, and workers there are angry.
The Canadian is the same man who allegedly kicked a Barbadian staffer at the facility, forcing protest action by about 20 workers at the plant on June 1.
In addition, the SUNDAY SUN has learnt from an informed source that letters of reprimand were sent to a number of workers who took part in the protest action and that morale at the plant was at an “all-time low” since the Canadian man’s return to represent Emera, the BL&P’s Canadian-based parent company.
The source revealed that after the placard-bearing protest, the Canadian consultant returned to Canada, but a little over a week later he was back on the floor at the Spring Garden facility in his substantive post in the maintenance department.
