The Public Services Workers’ Union (PSWU) has announced the suspension of its strike following a directive from the National Labour Commission (NLC).
This directive came after a meeting involving the PSWU, the Fair Wages and Salaries Commission (FWSC), and the NLC, aimed at resolving the ongoing labor dispute.
In a statement released on Friday, October 25, 2024, the PSWU confirmed that members on the Single Spine Salary Structure (SPSS) will return to work on Monday, October 28, 2024.
The PSWU emphasized that suspending the strike is part of their efforts to reach a mutually beneficial resolution with the government. They expressed hope that all parties will continue negotiations to address the concerns that led to the industrial action.
“We wish to inform you that, per the directives of the National Labour Commission (attached), the union’s leadership has agreed to suspend the industrial action to facilitate negotiations within the timeframe set by the NLC.
Consequently, we direct all our members on the Single Spine to report to work on Monday, October 28, 2024.”
