Some trade union members are expected to march in Port-of-Spain Friday to protest what they say is Government’s refusal to settle outstanding wage negotiations.
Members of the Joint Trade Union Movement (JTUM) plan to assemble outside the Eric Williams Financial Complex, Port-of-Spain to demand all outstanding salary negotiations with Government be settled soon.
The unions scheduled to take part include the Oilfields Workers’ Trade Union (OWTU), the Transport and Industrial Workers Union (TIWU), the Communication Workers Union (CWU), Banking Insurance and General Workers Union (BIGWU), National Union of Government and Federated Workers (NUGFW) and the Trinidad and Tobago Unified Teachers Association (TTUTA).
General secretary of JTUM, Ozzie Warwick, said the workers would march from the Financial Complex unionists would proceed up Henry Street, across Gordon Street, up Charlotte Street and around the Queen’s Park Savannah and Memorial Park. They would then go to Independence Square and Wrightson Road and end the march at the Financial complex, where they would hear speeches from trade union leaders.
