Complaints about alleged NIS deductions from this agency continues to go unheeded

Dear Editor,

There are continuing complaints of several employees of one large security service not processing contributions to the NIS for years, even though allegedly deductions are made from a substantial number of female guards in particular. The latter are said to have complained to the NIS from time to time, particularly when their claims are rejected. Yet the record is that this statutory agency has not been effective in representing these deficiencies to an employer who stands ‘secure’ for long years at Mandela Avenue, East La Penitence. Meanwhile some of the affected employees have few if any job options, and have to undergo this discrimination year after year. They could only presume that the NIS representatives they have seen have never alerted the management of this prolonged delinquency by an employer who by now must feel quite ‘secure’. Certainly the situation now is not like when a retired Police Commissioner established the agency long years ago.

Sincerely,

Insecure Guard
