Worker walks away with P16.50 after retrenchment

A former employee of Skip Hire who worked for the waste collection company for three years walked home with P16.50 package for retrenchment, as retrenched employees complained of unlawful deductions by the waste disposal company which laid off an estimated 40 workers abruptly last week.

Employees  said they got a shock of their lives  mid last week when they were slapped with retrenchment letters at  what was supposed to be a  General meeting at  the company’s premises at Commerce Park.
