Within recent days the President of the Guyana Public Service Union (GPSU) Patrick Yard has been expressing strong accusations against the Government of Guyana (GOG) over the approval of Parliament to consult with the Public Service Senior Staff Association and the ‘Federation of Union of Government Employees (FUGE) over the appointment of a member to serve on the Public Service Commission.
The GOG in supporting the issue of wider consultation outside of the GPSU is firmly grounded on industrial relations practices and principles.
