Well saw this article in the dailys today. But de Newsday saying 70 workers, but the Express saying 85. Anyways, its really sad to hear this. In the Express, it was reported that the workers claim that they are owed two months pay which amounted to 30,000 yen or TT$22,000 each, also they have to live in deplorable conditions.What madness is that? I fully suppor them in their right to be treated as human beings. With respect and dignity. The living quarters are really 20" foot containers. On the issure of money owed to them, I find it hard to swallow. TT$22,000.00 for two months works out to TT$11,000 a month. I know they work hard and round the clock, but if what they claim is correct then, I leaving my job in de morning and going and do chinese contruction. I believe this figure is exaggerated. I'm sure they work in shifts, so one worker's salary for a month would not be that amount. Anyways the contracting firm denies that the workers are owed any salary for two months. They (the company) have stated that money was kept in a deposit for the workers to discourage workers from not completing their working contracts. So at the end of a work contract they were paid their money. The company is prematurely terminating contracts of the protesting workers thus nullifying their deposits. So that mean that they return to their respective countries empty handed. What a shame.
