Almost 200 workers at C.O. Williams Construction are off the job.

Employees from the workshop, asphalt and quarries, quarries, concrete and asphalt reported to the Lears, St Thomas, headquarters around 7:30 a.m. as usual, but did not go to work.

They told Nation News they are protesting the lack of a salary increase over the last eight to ten years.

The shop stewards declined to speak to the media until representatives from the Barbados Workers Union arrived.

More details as they come. (SB)
