THE long-running wage dispute between the State and the Public Services Association (PSA) moved a step closer to resolution on November 21 as the union received a formal ten per cent salary offer covering two outstanding negotiation periods.
The offer in the form of a letter was delivered during a meeting between the PSA, the Personnel Department and the Ministry of Finance, where acting Chief Personnel Officer Wendy Barton made a presentation on the state of the economy. The substantive CPO, Dr Daryl Dindial, is out of the country.
PSA president Felisha Thomas had been agitated ahead of the meeting and expressed annoyance that the ten per cent offer was not originally scheduled to be deliberated.
