Sacked Troy Resources Guyana Inc workers have been paid their severance and the firm’s Executive Director Ken Nilsson says that a decision on the gold mining company’s future is expected to be made after tomorrow following talks with potential investors.
Nilsson told Stabroek News that the laid off workers received their severance during the course of last week. He noted that out of 227 ex-employees, 220 collected their monies. The seven remaining persons are still in the interior.
“Our workers were paid and all collected except seven. They are still in the interior and will collect their pay when they come out. I am happy to say that they were happy with the sum they received,” Nilsson told this newspaper last week. He added that they have spoken with the former employees and they are all keen on returning when operations restart.
