flag Belize workers protest for unpaid severance and interest, demanding government action despite court rulings.

flag On March 11, 2026, members of the Belize Communications Workers for Justice protested outside Belize’s National Assembly, demanding a meeting with Prime Minister Johnny Briceño over unpaid severance and 6% interest for former BTL employees. flag The group, representing 310 workers, argued that the government, as BTL’s owner, must act despite court rulings. flag Though denied entry to the House, they were allowed to sit on the opposition side after complying with rules. flag The Leader of the Opposition supported their cause, calling for justice, while the government stated payments had already been made per court orders and extended beyond legal requirements. flag Tensions arose over past labor policy delays, prompting a heated exchange and Speaker intervention. flag The group plans continued public actions to push for resolution.
