Richard Jordan, General Secretary of the Mortuary Workers Association, asserts that no amount of negotiation will prompt them to cancel their strike.

He noted that members of the Association are subjected to mistreatment and underpayment, notwithstanding the significant risks associated with their duties.

The workers have announced their decision to embark on a nationwide strike action.

The nationwide strike action is set to begin Thursday, September 26, 2024, in protest of poor working conditions and unresolved grievances.
