Sanitation Service Authority (SSA) management and workers have moved closer to resolving grievances that prompted a work stoppage this week, officials from both sides have confirmed.During talks on Friday between chairman of the SSA Ramon Alleyne and lead negotiator for the employees, Deputy General Secretary of the National Union of Public Workers (NUPW) Wayne Walrond, a commitment was given for further discussions. The talks at the union’s Dalkeith Road, St Michael headquarters came on the heels of a two-day strike by employees who demanded that Minister of the Environment and National Beautification Adrian Forde intervene in their dispute with SSA management over increased pay, and hazard and washing allowances, among other matters.
