The Public Services Workers' Union (PSWU) has suspended its industrial action following a directive from the National Labour Commission (NLC).

The NLC issued the directive on Wednesday, October 23, 2024, instructing the union to immediately call off its strike.

This came after both the Fair Wages and Salaries Commission (FWSC) and the PSWU appeared before the NLC to address the ongoing labour dispute.
