The board of the National Water Commission [NWC] has actually begun to carry out modifications in its operations, based upon suggestions of the Independent Oversight and Review Committee.
The five-member committee that was chaired by Michael McAnuff Jones, previous head of Human Resources of Scotia Group Jamaica, was designated in November in 2015 and asked to examine issues connected to personnel complete satisfaction.
Minister with obligation for Water, Matthew Samuda stated an absence of commercial consistency at the NWC required the intervention of an independent body.
The problems in contention were a task examination and settlement restructuring workout, payment of retroactive amounts and internal policies and practices.
In an interview with Radio Jamaica News, Mr McAnuff Jones stated the report of the committee was sent to the NWC board and Mr Samuda in January.
Mr Jones states, while he can not reveal the contents of the report, conversations have actually been accepted trade unions representing employees at the NWC.
He included that the work of the committee was comprehensive, taking a deep check out cultural and management practices at the National Water Commission.
Following that workout, he stated there are currently indications of enhancement in the relationship in between the management and the unions.
