Get the Apps Labour minister says aggrieved hotel workers will get their missing severance
Article by May 15, 2021
Frustrated former hotel workers, including those from the Accra Beach Hotel and Spa, have been given the assurance that they will receive outstanding severance despite continuous broken promises from their previous employer.
Minister of Labour and Social Partnership Relations Colin Jordan was responding to a fresh round of protests involving severed Accra Beach employees and those from the Hilton Barbados Resort, who were left on the breadline in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic.
After loud protests last December, the former Accra staff secured over 70 per cent of their outstanding pay with a promise from management, backed by tourism minister Senator Lisa Cummins that the remaining monies, including payment in lieu of notice, would be delivered no later than the 31st of March.
