AT&LU during Labour Day

The Antigua Trades and Labour Union (AT&LU) is facing internal challenges, mirroring issues within the United Progressive Party (UPP).

A week ago, the launch of the People’s Credit Union, led by former AT&LU Industrial Relations Officers Ralph Potter and Andie Stephens, signaled a potential shift in the labor landscape. Potter emphasized that the new union would remain politically independent.

Compounding the AT&LU’s struggles, Chet Greene, Chairman of the Antigua Barbuda Labour Party, hinted at the imminent departure of General Secretary Alrick Daniel during the opening of the annual delegates conference. Greene urged Daniel to stay committed to the union’s mission, highlighting its long history of advocating for workers’ rights.
