Guyana Trades Union Congress (GTUC) and Guyana Teachers' Union (GTU) sue government over salary deductions and union dues.
The Guyana Trades Union Congress (GTUC) has joined the Guyana Teachers' Union (GTU) in a High Court case against the Government of Guyana, challenging the government's decision to deduct pay from striking teachers' salaries and blocking the administration from discontinuing union dues deductions. The GTUC, the largest umbrella Labour Organisation in Guyana, claims it has a duty to represent its affiliates on matters of national importance. Meanwhile, the GTU and the government are expected to discuss the way forward regarding negotiations on better salaries and wages.
