JCSA calls on finance ministry to issue circular required to implement their wage agreement

The Jamaica Civil Service Association (JCSA) has called on the finance ministry to issue promptly, the circulars required to implement their wage agreement.

It was signed between the Jamaica Confederation of Trade Unions JCTU and the ministry on September 12, 2024.

The JCSA says following the signing, the first supplementary estimate was approved in parliament on October 15, after which payments were expected to be facilitated.

The group notes that the former finance minister would have indicated that the supplementary estimates include the last elements of the restructuring of compensation exercise, adding that restructuring of compensation for public-sector workers has been completed.

JCSA President Techa Clarke-Griffiths, says despite these preparations, the agreement remains unimplemented, leaving public sector workers increasingly frustrated.

According to a JCSA statement, a formal letter was sent from the JCTU president to the financial secretary seeking clarification, but to date, there has been no response.

The jcsa says this silence and delay have heightened concerns among JCSA members who have no intention of waiting indefinitely for the well-deserved adjustment to the compensation package, they were promised based on the signed agreement.

The JCSA has urged the finance ministry to address the matter immediately to avoid unrest.
