Laid off Cuban sugar workers called back
PLACETAS, Cuba, January 13 (María
Elena Alpízar, Grupo Decoro / www.cubanet.org)
- Close to 70 workers who were laid off
when the Sugar Ministry shut down three
area sugar mills more than a year ago have
been called back to work effective January
20.
The workers, some of the hundreds who lost
their jobs when the Benito Juárez,
Carbó Serviá, and Hermanos
Ameijeiras mills closed down in Placetas,
had been kept on the payroll while they
participated in an education program created
by the Ministry.
Due to lack of qualified personnel, the
workers have been told to report to work
at the Chiquitico Fabregat and José
María Pérez mills, in nearby
Remedios and Camajuaní municipalities,
or lose their salary.
