As it works to address Blairmont Estate workers’ concerns of unfair and unequal payment, Guyana Agriculture and General Workers’ Union (GAWU) yesterday said that they are awaiting response from the Guyana Sugar Corporation (GuySuCo) to determine its next move.
Disgruntled workers last Friday met with Vice President Bharrat Jagdeo and aired their concern while seeking his intervention. At the meeting, Stabroek News understands that Jagdeo, after listening to the workers, announced that the five per cent increase awarded to selected workers will be placed on hold until the sugar corporation addresses the matter.
