Regina Pierre and Nathan Charles, Shop Stewards from Sugar Beach Resort and National Insurance Corporation (NIC) – both branches of the National Workers Union (NWU) – will leave Saint Lucia shortly for Guadeloupe.
While in Guadeloupe, they will join over 100 trade union officials who will be participating in an industrial forum and attend the 14th Congress of Delegates of the Guadeloupe Trade Union Federation. The Industrial Relations session, which will attract trade union officials from the English, Dutch, French and Spanish-speaking region, is scheduled from April 1-7, 2014.
