There is no end in sight to the ongoing industrial action at the Caribbean Broadcasting Corporation (CBC).

Industrial action moved into its third day yesterday, with just over 20 employees opting to sit outside the premises of the Wildey, St Michael organisation, following a breakdown between the union and CBC management over the payment of increments.
In a hastily called press conference yesterday, CBC chairman Peter Earle told reporters the BWU’s demands were tantamount to a salary increase. (RB/AD)
