It is now confirmed that the RD Tuna has terminated 257 of the 505 of its workers that were on strike last week. The other 258 workers were reinstated. The reason why the others were terminated is because they had a poor record of attendance in previous years. This seems unfair to the workers because RD Tuna should not use the issue of workers going on strike as an excuse to get rid them. Having that strike to is something totally different. That strike should not be counted as workers missing work, NO; it was because of the company’s fault that those workers had to go on strike. They were fighting for what they were supposed to get in-line with the Labour laws of this country. The termination of the 257 workers is just another example for a foreign multinational corporation suppressing and undermining the rights of the workers who are Papua New Guineas. Where is the government in all these?
