The rejection by the University of Guyana Senior Staff Association (UGSSA) and the University of Guyana Workers Union (UGWU) of unilaterally imposed salary increases by the University’s Administration will be referred to the General Council, President of the UGSSA Jewel Thomas announced last Friday.
Thomas said the two unions wrote to UG Pro-Chancellor Major General (Ret’d) Joe Singh about the way in which the recently announced increases were arrived at. “…He responded to us to indicate that the matter will go to General Council,” Thomas explained.
She noted that they have since received correspondence about the General Council meeting.
