PRESS RELEASE - A Pre Poll Meeting summoned by Acting Labour Commissioner Mr. Ray Narcisse between the Management of First Citizens Investment Services Ltd. and officials from the National Workers Union (NWU) had to be aborted.
The meeting was scheduled for June 17, 2015 at the Department of Labour at 10.00 a.m. NWU officials were present for the said meeting. Company officials were absent.
That meeting was very important because it was called to agree upon all the logistical arrangements for the holding of the secret ballot poll.
The NWU said the company’s response to such an important meeting smacks of total disrespect for the Department of Labour and is an act that demonstrates insensitivity for the rights of workers.
The NWU will now have to decide on its next move.
