This initial engagement brought together PSA President, Felisha Thomas, NUGFW President, Christopher Streete, and EPA President, Deryck Richardson, along with members of their respective national executive teams. Discussions were cordial and constructive, focusing on key outstanding matters affecting workers, including unresolved grievances, promotions and appointments, and negotiations for unsettled bargaining periods.

He also affirmed Management’s commitment to meaningful dialogue and collaboration, and all parties agreed to continue the discussions through regular meetings aimed at resolving outstanding industrial relations issues and improving productivity across the Authority.
