Responding, the representatives of IBEDC at the meeting said the outsourcing firm agreed to renegotiate with the sacked workers within the stipulated timeframe.

It would be recalled that the NLC had barricaded and laid siege at the entrance of the IBEDC, demanding that the company re-instate and pay the minimum wage for the over 3,000 employed staff that was sacked.

Martin bemoaned the attitude of the outsourcing agents who had refused to pay minimum wage for it employees and making deductions that cannot be accounted for.

He apealed to the management of IBEDC to resolve the issues amicably, before escalating into full blown crisis.
