Af­ter 600 Nu­trien Trinidad Ni­tro­gen Op­er­a­tions work­ers faced the prospect of be­ing laid off, the Na­tion­al Trade Union Cen­tre (NATUC) has opened its doors to ad­vo­cat­ing on their be­half.

“I would want to tell the work­ers that at the Na­tion­al Trade Union Cen­tre (NATUC), we are will­ing to play a con­struc­tive and mean­ing­ful role in any is­sues, prob­lems, dis­putes, or con­cerns that they may have. We have our door open,” NATUC gen­er­al sec­re­tary Michael An­nisette said yes­ter­day.

He urged af­fect­ed em­ploy­ees to con­tact NATUC di­rect­ly so they could de­vel­op a strate­gic plan to safe­guard their in­ter­ests. NATUC, he added, is ready to meet at any time with the work­ers to un­der­stand their con­cerns and in­ter­vene mean­ing­ful­ly.
