Operations at the Guyana Sugar Corporation (GuySuCo) Wales Estate were at a standstill for the second day in a row,NFL Jerseys From China, when approximately 100 workers of the estate staged a strike, this time protesting against 0.79 percent of the Annual Production Incentive (API) being contributed to the Guyana Agricultural and General Workers Union’s (GAWU) funds.The estate procedures had halted the day before when workers there resorted to strike action in protest to the sugar company’s failure to pay them an 8.79 percent API.The workers had said that GAWU had informed them that they would be paid five per cent of the incentive within a month’s time, and the additional three per cent by mid-September.What enraged the workers was the fact that the remaining 0.79 percent would be contributed towards union funds.“We are not working,” said Gordon Thomas,Wholesale China Jerseys, a factory representative of the workers.Thomas said that the workers felt that they were entitled to all of their API, and felt that the union should not get the 0.79 percent. This, he said, was the basis for the second day of their strike action.He added that it was unfortunate that the workers could not get their money,Cheap Jerseys, since the negotiations between the union and GuySuCo management last year were deadlocked for such a long time, until an intervention by the Ministry of Labour.Thomas had previously said that the workers were anticipating a 12 percent API during last year, but GuySuCo union was bent on paying nine percent.With the assistance of Chief Labour Officer,NFL Jerseys Authentic, Mohamed Akeel,NFL Jerseys Supply, the two sides agreed to an 8.79 percent increase.Thomas said that this increase should have been given to workers by the end of last month.“The increase is less that what we were hoping for,Wholesale NFL Jerseys, and now the union is moving in and trying to take some of the money. That means we (workers) will get even less,” said an outraged worker.After the discovery of the payment to the union funds, the sugar workers unanimously said that they felt that they were not being properly represented by the union, and toyed with the idea of withdrawing their support to GAWU.The striking workers outside the GuySuCo factory in Wales. Grafton Williams,Cheap Jerseys From China, another of the factory representatives, pointed out that there had been no consultation between the workers and the union, before the union took the decision to put the money into the union’s funds.“That’s our money,” said Williams. “You can’t just go and take our money like that. We pay the union every week, and now they are taking money from us without even telling us.”The strike was timed to coincide with the testing that happens just before grinding time at the estate.Just before grinding time, the factory is tested so as to identify any defects there may be, so they can be fixed before the grinding process starts.At the same time, some of the striking workers said that it was not their fault that GuySuCo had lost so much money due to the bungled operations at the Skeldon Sugar Estate.“The money should have been channelled back into the development of other estates,” said one of the workers, as he noted that the mistakes made in Skeldon were not his, and as such he did not think he should be made to pay for it.Thomas maintained that the strike action would go on as long as necessary – until their demands are met.He however, did not rule out that there was room for negotiations. “We just want what we are entitled to. It is about money, people want their money,” said Thomas.
