Gov’t to proceed with final public service pay offer – President

President David Granger says that whether or not the Guyana Public Service Union (GPSU) agrees with the offer, his government will be paying public servants a differentiated wage hike ranging from 10% at the lowest scale to 1% at the highest

Asked on this week’s Public Interest television programme if his government is prepared to make an arbitrary award if the GPSU General Council which meets today rejects the offer, the president said “the award we proposed is as much as we can do as of the first of September and we intend to proceed with that.”
