The 500 staff members of Almond Beach Village in St Peter have been told to report for work on Monday, as they await notice in writing from Neal & Massy of their termination.
Following a meeting yesterday with staff of the debt-ridden hotel, Barbados Workers’ Union (BWU) general secretary Sir Roy Trotman said he was still to be officially informed by the Trinidadian-based conglomerate when the two would be meeting to discuss compensation for staff and other worker-related issues.
