Labour Minister Pearnel Charles Junior and representatives from his ministry and the management of the National Water Commission, (NWC) today met with unions representing NWC workers.
The Meeting followed a 72 hour strike notice issued on the NWC as workers continue to be restive over unresolved salary issues.
The workers say they want a salary scale review a process which has been a contentious one for the past 2 months, to be finalised promptly.
In the notice issued last Friday, the workers said if the matter is not satisfactorily resolved within 3 days, they will have no option but to resort to taking industrial action.
The Labour Minister said both parties have agreed to continue conciliatory talks and all parties will meet again on Wednesday.
Minister Charles Junior also urged both parties to refrain from any action during the period of conciliatory talks.
