The Barbados Workers Union is waiting and watching after exposing a large construction company’s alleged mistreatment of migrant workers.
“On Wednesday, we brought to the attention of the Social Partnership a very troubling occurrence, the fact that migrant workers in Jada Group were being undermined,” said general secretary Toni Moore during a media briefing earlier today at National Heroes Square, The City, adding they also had concerns about Infra Construction, which is part of the group.
Moore said the issue surrounded the living conditions of the workers, who are from India, Cuba and Colombia. She said it was those workers who approached the BWU to highlight their conditions, and thanks to some of their members being multilingual, they were able to communicate.
