"Constant" contact by shipyards mediator

Mediation between the government and the General Workers’ Union on the privatisation of the shipyards is continuing, with "constant" contact between all sides, GWU general secretary Tony Zarb told timesofmalta.com.

The mediator took up the issue on Monday.

Asked if any progress had been registered, Mr Zarb would not give a straight answer but said the union was working towards this aim. He said contacts were taking place all the time.

The GWU had been insisting on job guarantees for workers who do not take up the early retirement schemes. The governemnt said it could not give such guarantees, but said it would consider fine-tuning the schemes.
