Promised incentive pay not delivered

CIEGO DE AVILA, June 1 (www.cubanet.org) - Seafood-exporting firm Clodomira S.A. hasn't paid its workers promised incentive pay since last January.

The company harvests seafood for export, just the sort of dollar-earning activity the government wants to encourage, so the workers have been promised an incentive of 10 dollars a month on top of their regular peso salaries for exceeding production quotas.

So far, the workers have delivered, the company hasn't. The problem, company officials say, is they don't have the dollars. Last month, they received a check from the government which they had to return because it wasn't enough to pay all the outstanding money.
