Ministry of Labour and Social Security, Hon. Karl Samuda has advised that a Back to Work agreement has been reached between the National Water Commission and the 5 unions representing the over 2000 NWC workers following 16 hours of meetings.

The workers will return to work starting with today’s night shift, which begins at 11pm.
