On Thursday the Hospitality and Food Section within the General Workers’ Union registered an industrial dispute at the Manoel Theater with the DIER Department, due to the “intransigence of the management of the same theatre.”
The GWU said it had no other choice after several attempts to get the two parties to meet up to start negotiations for a new collective agreement. “The Section has shown the interest to improve the conditions and wages of its members. Although she made several attempts to start discussions the management kept refusing. “
“In the absence of interest from the management the GWU had no other way but to register such a dispute with the intention of stepping to industrial actions. The GWU apologizes to the public for any inconvenience that may be caused due to directives that may be given during the festive season. “
