A crush of workers, who worked at the Drainage Division up until December 31, collected their green papers yesterday from Government allowing them to collect unemployment benefits.
Prime Minister Freundel Stuart, Minister of the Environment and?Drainage Dr Denis Lowe, Minister of Labour Dr Esther Byer Suckoo and Minister of Social Care Steve Blackett addressed a meeting with the laid-off workers.
Stuart said the sacking of the more than 300 workers should have been handled better.
