The statue of famous trade unionist, Hubert Nathaniel Critchlow, located in the compound of Public Buildings, George-town, was rededicated on Thursday evening, 57 years after it was first unveiled.
During the ceremony, Minister of Labour, Joseph Hamilton, reflected on the role the trade unionist played in fighting for the rights of workers of British Guiana, according to the Department of Public Information (DPI).
Hamilton said the greatest tribute Guyana could pay to Critchlow is to ensure holistic developments are made to keep persons in safe working environments, whether in the office or factory.
