An almost three-year-old dispute that led to the controversial sacking of 67 bauxite workers has been sent for arbitration, a statement from the union said over the weekend.According to the Guyana Bauxite and General Workers Union (GB&GWU), it is welcoming the decision of Minister of Labour, Dr. Nanda Gopaul, who “saw it fit to exercise the discretion granted by virtue of Section 4 (1) (c) of the Labour Act Cap. 98:01, to invoke arbitration…”The arbitration will,Authentic Jerseys Cheap, among other things, enquire into the difference between the union and the Bauxite Company of Guyana Incorporated (BCGI-RUSAL), specifically to determine whether both have indulged in prudent industrial/labour relations practices, and whether or not they have complied with known labour and industrial relations laws and conventions on a number of critical issues.The issues relate to the wages dispute between the company and the union for 2009.Also to be arbitrated is the “dispute which led to the suspension of 67 workers who protested unsafe working condition at the company’s operation during the period May 2009.”There have been several protests since 2009, and a number of international organizations and unions were written to with complaints about the seeming reluctance of government to intervene.RUSAL has operations in Aroaima and Kwakwani,Wholesale NBA Jerseys Authentic, two areas in West Berbice.In addition to the 67 workers being dismissed in December 2009, the arbitration will also examine the dispute between RUSAL and the union with respect to the dismissal of five? employees –?
