Patrick Yarde

The Guyana Public Service Union (GPSU) has expressed profound disappointment over the absence of formal negotiations for wage increases for public servants.

Speaking on the sidelines of a press conference on Wednesday, President of the GPSU Patrick Yarde, said that the union is in a “peculiar” situation, and is dissatisfied with what he says is government’s practice of frustrating negotiations near the end of the year.

 He explained that though they were given assurances that the practice would be remedied, it remains the same.
