The management of Guardsman St. Lucia Ltd and officials from the National Workers Union (NWU) will meet on Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at the Department of Labour.

The meeting, which will be undertaken by an official from the Department of Labour, will discuss a recognition claim submitted by the National Workers Union on behalf of the 70 guards two weeks ago.

The parties will also agree on a date for the holding of a secret ballot poll and the necessary logistical arrangements that would facilitate these workers in exercising their choice of trade union representation.

This initiative will ultimately bring closure to this matter one way or another.
