A number of workers attached to the Uitvlugt estate yesterday downed tools as they expressed their frustrations with the growing inefficient functioning of the factory.
The workers who belong to both the GAWU and the NAACIE related that for many weeks now they have been expressing their concerns to senior management of the estate and, it appeared, their concerns are falling on deaf ears.
A release from the Guyana Agricultural and General Workers Union (GAWU) said that workers complained that muddied canes are being delivered to the factory which is creating several headaches.
