Over 350 dismissed sugar workers received no severance payout

December 3 2018

Of the 4763 sugar workers who were made redundant by the Guyana Sugar Corporation (GuySuCo) as part of that State entity’s restructuring programme, more than 350 who formerly were attached to the Wales Estate did not receive severance payment on Friday, as others across the industry did.This was revealed by former Agriculture Minister, Dr Leslie Ramsammy after a careful investigation into the severance payout to Wales Sugar Estate workers.The National Assembly had, in early November, given approval for almost $2.5 billion to be released to cater for the remaining severance due to 4,723 sugar workers.

Not dead as yet, production will be there for local consumption and some export. It will be foolish to shut the industry down and import Sugar.

It was also foolish to shut down sugar and now import molasses to keep DDL alive.

Nothing but the truth, the demise was in the horizon for Sugar and Bauxite. In the Bauxite Industry Australia, Brazil, India , China and Guinea in West Africa took over the market.

In the 70's Jamaica was the second largest Bauxite producer in the world, today they are bottom of the ladder.
