SAS REFUTES CLAIM ... Says SA's release 'fraught with inaccuracies'

SUN St.Kitts & Nevis: "The Stevedoring Association of St. Kitts (SAS) has sought to refute sections of an announcement made by the Shipping Association of St. Kitts last Wednesday in a debriefing exercise which stated that it had developed a package of salary and social benefits for all stevedores.
SAS describes the announcement as being “fraught with inaccuracies as they pertain to the latest rounds of negotiations between both unions.”
In its rebuttal the association stated, “Workers make income of $30,000 - 40,000; $20,000 – 30,000 and at the lower level $10,000 – 20,000 and in some instances wage earnings have exceeded $70,000 per annum is ludicrous and cannot be substantiated by the Department of Labour that administers the rotation scheme which is based on requisitions made by shipping agents."
