Dear Editor,
I am disappointed at the level of representation given to GPL workers by NAACIE., the union which represents them. For the general secretary of the union to say that after a meeting between the union, the displaced workers and GPL the workers left the meeting satisfied was ridiculous. How can any workers who have been made redundant be satisfied with such an occurrence? Time and again I have said that NAACIE under the present leadership has failed the workers, as over the years they have been engaged in negotiations with management of the power company over issues that have affected the workers with little success. Under the previous leadership this union was vibrant as they challenged and negotiated with the then CDC/ESBI management and were able to secure several formidable wage and salary increases and other benefits for the workers.
