PSA Demands 10% Pay Hike Amid Union Tensions | Trinidad and Tobago News

The PSA is demanding a 10% pay raise for its members, many still earning salaries from 2013, with president Felisha Thomas calling it common sense—not preferential treatment. Amid rising tensions across unions over government negotiation tactics, Thomas rejects claims of political favoritism and urges collaboration over confrontation, insisting the labor movement remains united despite differing strategies. The PSA has submitted proposals to WASA and is awaiting feedback, hopeful that the upcoming budget will deliver raises across key state entities including WASA, HDC, and regional health authorities. Meanwhile, other unions—from Communication Workers seeking a 10% TSTT raise to nurses demanding urgent talks—are also pushing for overdue wage increases.
