The KHMHA Workers Union is stepping up its efforts after waiting far too long for action on their pension concerns. Talks with the government have dragged on without results, and union members say they’ve had enough. Union President Andrew Baird shared that this kind of delay isn’t new, it’s been happening since they first started pushing for their pension years ago. Still, he says there’s been a promise from the government to improve the situation, and now the union is holding them to it.

“That was a point driven in the meeting to them just before we concluded as a reminder that the reason we are at this stage of a phased plan of action is because of them being noncommitted to dialoguing that has been going on over the years or so. We were assured that this would not occur any much more. But as I said, we will be guided by our membership after our meeting tonight.”
