The Ministry of Labour has denied that it is dragging its feet regarding Pritipaul Singh Investment and former workers who are demanding their severance pay after they were sent off in September when the company rejected a bid for unionisation.
In a press release issued yesterday, the Ministry said that it immediately took action from the time it was notified of the issue. The release stated, “On September 21, 2022, the Ministry’s attention was drawn to the protest action by the workers of Pritipaul Singh Investment Inc (PSI). Immediately, the Ministry invited PSI’s Human Resources Manager to a meeting the next day, September 22, 2022, to understand the situation and address the grievances. Importantly, at that time, the Ministry did not have any unresolved complaints from any worker of the company.”
