The Saint Lucia Civil Service Association (CSA) has sought the intervention of the Labor Commissioner in the matter of the impending SLTB staff terminations.
The union says after hearing rumors of terminations, it reached out to the SLTB for a meeting to discuss the future of its members. CSA President, Yvonne Edwin, says after writing to SLTB in November, the union got an acknowledgement letter after. But according to her, the union heard nothing afterwards and tried its best to arrange a meeting with the Chairperson of the STLB – without success.
Edwin, says it is strange that the SLTB staff being targeted for termination are not being absorbed into the new Tourism Authority given their years of experience
