The tourism sector has been hit by another protest over wage concerns and other issues.

IRIE FM News understands that around 100 workers from the Jewel Paradise Cove Hotel in Runaway Bay, St. Ann are protesting.

Some of the placard-bearing workers told IRIE FM News that they want better compensation, uniforms, and an improved menu.

Another worker said a meeting was held with management this morning, but their concerns were not addressed adequately.

The fifth protest by hotel workers in recent weeks.

Protests over similar concerns were staged by workers at Excellence Oyster Bay in Trelawny, Iberostar Hotel, Secrets and Breathless Resorts in St. James and Royalton Negril in Westmoreland.

Yesterday, the Labour Ministry said it has commenced an industry assessment into the tourism sector.

The results of that assessment are expected in January next year.
