Transport Sector Requires Report of NRB
The Common Front transport unions (FCTU), which includes buses, taxis and trucks seeking an urgent meeting with the Minister of Labour Shakeel Mohamed. The reason: request a report from the National Remuneration Board (NRB) for transport workers.

"The private sector employees do not get half the amount granted to those who work in the public sector, it is essential that the NRB publishes a report as soon as possible and a written request for a meeting with Minister Mohamed filed since Monday, said the president of FCTU  Yusuf Chotoye. The latest report of NRB dated 2008 and it is noted that the salary of a bus driver in the private sector is Rs 10,000, which is insufficient. "

Turning the demerit points, the FCTU  maintains its request the government to reconsider this system. According to Yusuf Chotoye, we can not compare Maurice to Europe because there is a world of difference between the two country roads. He also highlighted the lack of employees, specifically Sundays in the private transport sector. "The employees are afraid to work on Sundays because it is the day when there is more aggression," said Yusuf Chotoye.
