NAACIE hosts seminar for Branch representatives

Oct 28, 2009 News

Several branch representatives were yesterday a part of a one-day seminar hosted by the National Association of Agricultural Commercial and Industrial Employees.
The branch representatives were drawn from the West Coast and East Coast Demerara and the Georgetown area.
According to General Secretary of NAACIE, Kenneth Joseph, the aim of the seminar was to properly inform the representatives of their role as well as the role of employers. He added that given continuous evolving trend where employers find every possible means of taking away from workers a seminar of this nature is necessary.
“We as a trade union also have a very big role to play, we need to put aside the disunity and all the negativity among ourselves if we are going to move forward,” Joseph said.
He further stressed that the representatives were properly briefed on understating workers’ as well as employers’ right and the need for both parties to understand the specific roles.
Also at the seminar were representative from the National Insurance Scheme who discussed the importance of contribution, claims and benefits. Also the branch representatives were also apart of a discourse with Dr. Randy on the recently launched Low Carbon Development Strategy.
Those present at the seminar were all recently elected representative.
Meanwhile representatives from the Berbice area are expected to benefit from a similar seminar which will be held at the Albion Community Centre on Thursday.
