Talks between LIAT and Unions still unresolved

Talks between regional trade unions and the Caribbean airline, LIAT, ended in Antigua yesterday with the unions indicating that they are still awaiting the airline’s response to a contentious issue.



President of the Caribbean Congress of Labour, Chester Humphrey, told the Caribbean Media Corporation that the talks were cordial but that there was still a major sticking point.



He said the area of contention relates to notice pay.



Talks between the two parties resumed on yesterday after the airline agreed on Thursday to rescinded dozens of redundancy letters stemming from the closure of city ticket offices region-wide.
