LABOUR DISPUTE SETTLED
The dispute involving the management and nine workers of the
Arvin (HK) Ltd. has been settled.
The dispute arose over the stoppage of work by 350 workers
on November 11. The nine workers were dismissed for alleged misconduct
within the factory.
The Labour Relations Service of the Labour Department stepped
in soon after the dispute broke out. Two conciliation meetings were
subsequently held in the San Po Kong office of the Service where the
parties to the dispute finally reached agreement.
Under the agreement, the dismissed workers today each received
one month wages in lieu of notice and a pro-rata year-end bonus, The
total amount involved is in the region of $6,000.
