JamaicaObserver.com: "JAMAICANS could spend the 'Mother's Day weekend' without piped water if unionised workers at the state-owned National Water Commission (NWC) go ahead with a threat to lock off supplies, as part of their protest for higher wages.
The National Workers Union (NWU) - one of the five unions representing the water company employees - said workers should have received a seven per cent pay increase in April, in keeping with a public sector memorandum of understanding signed last year, but said they were recently informed that they would no longer get the salary hike because of the Government's wage freeze."
