There has been no public reaction to date from the Guyana Public Service Union (GPSU) on government’s announcement last week of a 5% pay increase for public servants.
Several efforts by this newspaper to get a comment from GPSU president Patrick Yarde on the issue were unsuccessful even though a message was left with his secretary on the subject of the inquiry.
Public service employees and members of the disciplined services will receive a 5% retroactive pay hike for this year,
