Sugar workers concerned they could be on breadline when industry is in private hands

Scores of sugar workers are feeling uneasy as discussions surrounding the transition of the sugar industry from a public entity to a private enterprise continue, says president of the Sugar Industries Staff Association (SISA) Dwight Miller.Miller told Barbados TODAY that his constituents were concerned that the industry was not a lucrative one and once the transition was made it could threaten the employability of workers.“We had some talks at the end of December and [were] promised that talks would resume this month. I would hope we would be able to get those talks started again. In terms of the privatisation of the industry, people are thinking long-term in terms of the future of the industry and the conversations that we are having with management bear those concerns in mind, in terms of not only what would happen for this crop but what will happen after the crop and beyond.
