Water Board employees call of token strike

After several rounds of discussions, the authorities have agreed to give full annual bonus for the employees of the National Water Supply and Drainage Board (NWS&DB), removing the token strike which had been launched since early Tuesday morning.

The first token strike was commenced on December 26 after the authorities had decided to grant a reduced bonus for the employees.

Later, a group of employees of the NWS&DB had engaged in token strikes several times since last Saturday in protest over the decision.
