NEGOTIATIONS between TTPost and its recognised majority union Postal Workers' Union will continue on March 20 as both parties reject each other's salary increase offers for two bargaining periods.

TTPost rejected the union's counter-proposal on February 26 for a 15 per cent increase for the period 2014 to 2016 and nine per cent for 2017 to 2019 for bargaining units one and three, citing that it was not genuine.

“TTPost’s management asserts that this counter-offer does not represent a genuine proposal but rather appears to be another unfortunate and deliberate tactic aimed at advancing the personal agendas of the union’s executive to the detriment of the expectations of the employees,” a TTPost statement said.
