PHILIPSBURG:--- Following a meeting with representatives of the St. Maarten Communication Union (SMCU), Wednesday afternoon, management of PSS N.V. issued the following statement regarding industrial action taken by postal workers earlier in the day.
PSS N.V. management is presently dealing with a serious incident which allegedly took place on company premises involving a member of the management team and a member of the postal staff.
Management is working diligently to bring this matter to a satisfactory conclusion by speaking with all parties concerned, but at this stage, management cannot be guided by demands to enforce any actions unless and until all facts pertaining to this incident are collated, assessed and conclusions drawn.
Management assures all personnel of PSS N.V. that their safety and well-being in the workplace and in the execution of their postal duties is paramount at all times and without exception.
We have appealed to personnel for their continued patience while steps are taken to resolve this matter as quickly as possible.
