NIB workers on sickout back in 2019.
NASSAU| Exercises of Union Busting are now the practice by the Minnis-led Government and a clear example of this is evidenced at the National Insurance Board.
Since the protests of 2019 were getting hot at NIB, the Board by the directions of its former Director decided to promote into management and number of UNION leaders, thus leaving non management staff without any Union Leadership.
BP is learning the Union’s Secretary General is now been promoted as the Customer Service Manager at NIB, and its President has been promoted to manage the Board’s Bimini operations.

NASSAU, BAHAMAS The National Insurance Board (NIB) is collaborating with the Department of Immigration to produce a card that will be issued at birth and indicate a person’s nationality, Minister of Public Service and National Insurance Brensil Rolle told Parliament today.
Rolle, the Garden Hills MP, while making his contribution in Parliament to the mid-year budget debate, stated: “What we would like to do is issue a card from birth so that we could follow you from the time you are born in The Bahamas using one identification number and one card.”

TWO trade unions have joined forces in an appeal to the Prime Minister to intervene to stop the exploitation of private security guards.
They have also called for a commission of enquiry into the practices of security firms and their poor industrial relations practices.
Claiming many private security firms flout national insurance regulations, the unions appealed for state contracts not to be given to such companies.
The presidents of the two unions – Dave Smith of the National Workers Union (NWU) and Deryck Richardson of the Estate Police Association (EPA) – have described the working conditions of some officers as “slave-like.”
