A 72-hour strike notice has been issued on the National Water Commission (NWC) as workers continue to be restive over unresolved salary issues.

The notice was issued last Friday by the trade unions representing the workers.

These are the National Workers Union (NWU), the Bustamante Industrial Trade Union (BITU), the Jamaica Association of Local Government Officers (JALGO) and the Union of Public and Private Employees.

In a letter to NWC President Mark Barnett, copied to the media, the unions acknowledged receipt of an email from the company conveying the response of the Finance Ministry to concerns and position advanced at a meeting on July 3.
